i can't sleep...2005 XKR
#121
I'm seeing CANbus bulbs all over Amazon and Ebay these days (note the spelling - 'N' not 'M' if you are doing a search). Haven't tried any yet, however.
When I return from my extended road trip (projected 5,000+ miles in 2 weeks) I'm going to order those clear side lenses. I already have the amber LEDs I plan to put in them. Amber is necessary to avoid tickets.

I'm looking for those Bulbs you mentioned and will order some (again) and let you know if it happens again.....

The nice thing about the amber LEDs I bought is they don't look amber until they are turned on this avoiding the fried egg look I hope!
Fallback plan is the chromed amber bulbs you and others have mentioned. However I really hope the LED bulbs work for me.
About 950 miles into the first leg of my trip and I'm missing my Kat with every mile!

CANbus Bulbs.....from what they say, They may work but it appears to be pretty time consuming, as you apparently have to put them in one at a time and check to see if it works.....If not, you have to pull it and reverse the positions.....or something like that!

For my indicators and side markers, I bought Sylvania white tipped bulbs, and you can't see them until they are lit.

There is nothing special about the dash bulbs; they are not CANbus. Yes, just plug and pray that you don't have to flip them.

The Texas XKR rides again.............Wooha!!!!

BC, looking sweet!
When I get home from this 2-week 5000 mile road trip I will start installing all the parts currently pulled on the dining room table. Hopefully my new side markers have arrived!
Sadly we couldn't take Kat on this trip. We had too many items to deliver to our children so we had to take the Caddie instead.

BC, car looks great, difficult to see how they designed such a beautiful car and stuck the Warts, I mean amber side markers to those beautiful lines. Thanks to P.B.F. for turning me onto those clear lens and S/M's
