All,

I got photo happy when installing my genuine nissan Clear indicators. I hope this helps someone else out. It will take you less than 15 minutes, all I used was a screwdriver and a rag (to clean up gunk behind old indicators).

Parts:

Step 1 - Pop out old light (be careful not to scratch)

Step 2 - Once Light is out disconnect the bulb from the surround by turning 45 degrees

Both indicators side by side

Step 3 - Remove the old bulb - DO NOT TUG ON WIRES!. Use the plugs for leverage please and a screw driver like pictured if it is stubborn.

Step 4 - Clean up gunk that built up behind old indicator (only necessary if you are anal like me)

Step 5 - All Clean

Step 6 - Test

Hopefully it works.

Step 7 - Insert bulb into the indicator (will only go in one way). You will then need to lock the bulb into place by turning back 45 degrees.

Step 8 - Place indicator back in place

Step 9 - Firmly press in and your done on the first side.

Step 10 - Rinse and Repeat with other side. You will need to turn the wheel back the other way first or your wheel will get in the way.

All done. Make sure to test again, then go for a drive to further test.

Is the provided yellow bulb bright enough during daytime compared to OEM bulb?

Seems fine to me the whole indicator still lights up. Ill drop an extra pic in later to show you.

It is a Nissan bulb so should be sweet.

hey dude, thanks for sharing, appreciate it!

btw which site did u order that through or did u go through nissan parts!?

Got mine off an EBAY seller in the states. $55 delivered.

They are more expensive now due to exchange rates. Beware of the real cheap non genuine items!

How cool was that? What a great idea to do that instructional thread...

Did you really use that large of a Screwdriver?

and

What wheels are they, are they standard?

Sorry, still learning, but looks good.. and thanks.

they are standard, though they are darker than mine for some reason.

I reckon they look too good to me to replace,so I've just kept them!

That was the screwdriver i used.

They are the 18" factory rims. Mine are darker than most. It's just a coating as there is a chip on one (you can see in the pics).

hey guys,

thinking of buying these:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-INFINIT...emZ120315047245

do they seem legit?

well the pic looks legit to me - for a sedan.

if they are legit and you get them for that price it's a steal.

I say pay with Paypal and if they aren't genuine as advertised then lodge a dispute.

I got my NON-Factory for coupe back to Mid this year for US$30 delevered.

I consider it is pretty cheap.

BTW there is any other post regarding clear coner in form.

Lots of people discuss about it for long long ago.

Yep that's the guy i bought mine off. I got mine a bit cheaper when the $AUD was a bit higher.

Considering ordering off Nissan costs a heap more than that even $70 is a good price. I got mine 7 days after paying.

      Possible swap on R34 RB20DE NEO?

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice

      Turn signal wiring question

      By OakvilleGTR · Posted

      Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..

      Lower A arm Skyline v35

      By sonicii · Posted

      The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.

      By The Bogan · Posted

      Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
