I just got my red/clears today for my 96 civic coupe and it came with these orange bulbs. 1. The orange bulbs dont look like they will fit newhere to get power to them and 2. Where do they go and why did i get them.
Also what bulbs do i actually need for these or can i jsut use the 4 that came with the car. Thnx
Sorry for such a lousy question.

Those bulbs aren't going to fit in your car because they changed the adapter in the 99-00 models.

You can't get amber bulbs that fit in that adapter, and if you put clear ones it they look like shit. Your tail lighs will look more of a pink color than red.

If you go to Wal-Mart or any other store similar, go to their model car section, and get amber model paint. Put like 2 or 3 coats of that paint on the bulbs and they'll look fine.

Are the amber bulbs the turning blinkers?

yeah the amber bulbs were for your turn signals....they came w/ my red/clears when I got them for a guy but I just left the stock bulbs in there and my turn signal is white from the 1157 Bulb....

if you are going to get diff brake lights spend a little more $ and get the LED's they are bright and worth it.

congrats on the purchase hope they look good on the ride...:yes: :yes: :yes:
