Hi, I am currently doing an LED conversion. I ordered the turn signals for the rear tails as a part of this. 1156, and when I removed the one that came with the JDM tails, it was different. Anybody know the bulb # for the 1999 taillight turn signals?

Thatss odd, my JDM tails had the same bulb bases as my USDM tails. Just different wattage ratings, had no problems swapping the bulbs over and vise versa. Got a picture of the turn signal bulbs?

+1 to what itsa300zx said. Mine were exactly the same.

Just shove them in the socket, mine work just fine that way.

The JDM rear lights I got from Z1 had those different bulbs as well. I already had LED's in my USDM lights that wouldn't fit the sockets so I just used the sockets and harnesses out of the USDM lights and they fit just fine into the JDM lights.

Thank you @javadave. Will look into doing that once I get back to the garage.
