Whats going on guys i got me some chuki 50/50 (half amber, half clear) corner lights for my S13 hatch... and i did search this and couldnt find anything so dont flame me :squint: ... here is my question... On the USDM corner light housing there is 1 bulb, 1 harness... obviously on the 180sx corner light there is a 2 bulb housing but i only have the harness and the bulbs for the amber sides... SO i was wondering... how the hell do i wire them up? :gotme Is there a JDM harness for me to buy for the 2 bulbs, but plugs into the 1 usdm main harness??? Oh and does anyone know what size bulb goes into the clear sides? Im looking for the blueish white color bulb to put in the clear sides! :dblthumb:

You don't need help with this..... Just dig into your car and wire them into something. Wire the amber to the blinkers and the white light to the side markers.

Easy...get two 1156 sockets. (Unless they're different)...

Find which one wire is used for the signal and solder/crimp/heatshrink it in the correct location.

Grounds are the same.

Yes, cutting and splicing wires.

Or take it to someone that knows what they're doing. Either way gets it done.

I'm assuming you bought the half ambers used... because if you bought them new from nissan they should have already came with the little harness that goes to the 2 sockets, which is just plug n play on the usdm harness
