now these dont just fit but all you need is a small trim of the lugs

now find out what wire does what...if you get it wrong your indicator will flash fast..

the lexus bulb holder wiring.white/black to white/black(earth)car wiring green/yellow will be spliced into with green/white(indicator feed) and finally green/orange to your side light feed.

once youve wired them in you might want to cover/protect the exposed connector i did this using the finger off one of my blue gloves

well for those wanting to do this mod i traced down the proper bulbs
[Image: 429328_3245599359187_1875256925_n.jpg]
you need to do a slight mod to these bulbs...remove the black plastic clip type bit you can see above the contacts..
ill update the pics soon as i fit the bulbs as they will be more orange.
