Clear turn signals ?, turn signals Options

[x94celicagtx]

I have to get new clear signal bumper light? But as far as i can see they dont make them for a 94 hb. they make them for the 90 -93 and the 96+ years. If any which one would fit in easier or what are my other options???

[Coomer]

'90-93 will fit easier, though they'll be too small and it'll look funny I think. '96+ has a different shape altogether, and won't even come close to fitting right.

You can always make your own custom signals, or have someone make them for you. Search and you'll find more information on this.

I think they look like poo. They just dont look right using the overlight plastic. Id say if you coudl find a better plastic to use, tehy will look nice, but what to use no idea..

[Coomer]

I'm thinking about experimenting with lexan for mine. It's going to be very dificult to get them to look perfect though.

Oh, and Doug, I do agree that mine don't look that good, but it's far better than the amber stock ones that I had before, especially on yellow.

anyone got a pic of a gen6 with the gen5 lights?

[Batman722]

I did this a while back. PM Latinkraze or rjb23. They have pics. I should be able to post an older pic later tonight.

[Digndoug]

I think I might stop by homedepot today after my interview, any idea on what type of plastic to use? also does it have to be translucent or can it be transparent?

I'd just find some clear plexiglass or lexan. If you want the frosted look, just scuff the plastic up with sandpaper.

[latinomasfino]

check mine out made of pexiglass

Latino those look hot. What thinkness plexi? cause the stuff i have at my house will snap if i bend like that

[kristinw85]

i bought the lights for the 96 model and then just laid body filler and sanded it down and made new holes for the sides to slide in and now they fit fine...i will post pics when i get done

[Rjb23]

You have the invader kit that is totally different than the stock bumper.

The custom clear turns wont ever look as good as the 93 turns IMO. The chrome paint is the big key, and the houseing is another. The DIY clear turns just don't look good.

PS I have pics of the 93 turns in my profile if anyone wants to see them.

[Batman722]

93 turns

[Rjb23]

Looks good batman, how did you mount yours? Did you use the old turns bracket like I did?

[Batman722]

I used the how-to you sent me a long time ago. I think it was you and yes I did, just one bracket.

[Rjb23]

Yup it was me.

[BrianGT4]

can someone send me that guide? I'm ordering mine tomorrow....

[Fietsbel]

i'm interested in that guide as well

[Blakout16]

haha, yeah... i'd like that guide as well unless u are posting it ?

[Batman722]

Looks like I started something here. I don't have the how-to anymore but rjb23 might. Also, LatinKraze did this too and he posted pics a while back. If someone PMs one of them maybe they could get some more pics up and a how-to for everyone.

[LatinKraze]

Damn, I forgot to get the pics. I'll get some pics for you guys by friday.

[right][snapback]261255[/snapback][/right]

any news??

[Rjb23]

Sorry I looked and I dont have the guide anymore.

Its simple to do, first cut off the brackets on the 93 turns, then redrill the screw hole so it matches up with the existing hole in the bumper. then cut the old brackets off the old turns and epoxy them onto the new turns, put some silicone on the screw holes so they dont leak and screw them into the bumper, repeat for the other side. Takes about 30 mins.

[Fietsbel]

Thanx, so the only difference is the bracket?
I'm gonna order those blinker blinky lights, wooHoo!
i'll post a guide when i got the blinkers

That's only usefull if you got a GT4 bumper

[lil_lissa]

so just to clarify, there isn't a set of clear turn signals you can just purchase without doing your own? i'm not very talented at making my own **** lke that, as a matter of fact have never done that, so i woudln't want to try it. If i just change the bulb in there from orange to a clear bulb, will it change it? because when i look at the turn signal, the plastic is clear, but the bulb is orange... does that make sense??

i just want it to flash clear rather than flashing orange

[ghostdog]

you can buy 96-99 clear signals from procarparts or on ebay. or if you just want them clear (tho it doesn't look as good as the ones you buy) you can remove the amber lense inside

thanks, is there a website? www.procarparts.com or something? ive been keeping my eye out for ones on ebay but haven't seen anything yet. How do you get into the headlight to get the lens out? is it harD?

[Blakout16]

it requires a heat gun (or blow dryer) and patients

[ghostdog]

assuming you meant turn signal rather than headlight heres a how-to

BUMP-----


I just got my 90-93 clear turn signals in the mail. I havent modified them in yet, but i just set them in place to see what they look like and there a little small. So fill the gaps with anything? Or just push them in more so that there is no gap just a little space. ????????????????HELP??????????

[AndyST4]

so i've heard that 96+ turns can easily be fitted into a 94 bumper, is this not true?

[right][snapback]266498[/snapback][/right]

I've heard ppl on here say the same thing. They said they just made a hole in the turn signal to fit the one in the 94 bumper. Maybe they were wrong?

[lil_lissa]

i found a pair on procarparts.com
anyone have these ones installed in their cars? just curious as to how it looks

[BrianGT4]

anyone got a better guide on how to do this. I have both the stock 94 & the clear gen5 turns sitting in from of me. What exactly do I do? swap the lenses? or is it try and fit the gen5 inside the gen6 houseing?

[BrianGT4]

[Jdog1385]

Jdog, why not just use the 5th gen ones? I think it'd make a dramatic difference on your car.

If you have a 94-95 it looks like crap, one they are to wide to fit in the slots, 2 they are angled not rounded so they don't fit right there. Stick with the 93 turns if you have a 94-95.

[TrD3sgte94]

JUST PM ME IF U WANT PICS LATER,ITS EASIER 2 REMEMBER WHO WANTS THEM... IT WILL BE AT LEAST A WEEK OR SO B/C I SENT MONEY ORDER YESTERDAY...

5th gen works the best b/c i got my 96-99 yesterday and the dont fit unless u cut bondo and re drill holes(CRAPY!!!) and sorry no pics

[DeW_H0e_GT]

i've installed a 5th gen clear bumper lense and its crappy...it wouldnt be a real comfy fit....i've tried forcing the screww into the 6th gen bolt housing...cracked the lenses.....i've used epoxy on the bottom portion of the lense and its sticking ever since...looks weird cuz of the 2 plastic rods that were supposedly mounted on the 5th gen housing......

[Rjb23]

I have 5th gens and I screwed them in too. You have to redrill the hole to match the bumper. Check out my pics in my profile or in my thread.

[Rjb23]

And you dont use the lense you use the whole housing.

[initialdrift55]

i have a brand new pair of the 5th gen..to sell if anyone wants it i bought them then never used it because i got a kit so...for sale 40$

[Jaws4God]

So should I get the 5th gen 90-93 clear turn signals or the 90-93 clear euro turns?

Clear Turns:


Clear Euro:


Does it really matter?

So the wiring is easy? Screwing them in is hard?

[mark_426]

Preference.

Wiring, the bulbs plug right it.

Then, if you want to make a bracket to fit, go for it, if not, some velcro or the sort ought to also hold.

Heres what mine look like:

[Valo666]

du what im duin..instead of duin clear im gettin some this special paint called NightShade by VHT and im paintin em black. so they r completely black during the day n then when u signal they actually light up normaly. Im plannin on duin my side markers, turn signals and tail lights all with it.

[Jaws4God]

Oh, well i've already gotten the clear side markers and I like how they look... but I just need the turns to match now

[ILuvMyCelica95]
