T10 Wedge Globes In Liberty Oppasite Pin Plugs

Post by BrennyV » Tue Aug 19, 2008 4:58 pm

Well I decided that since the HID's are going in I would need to run some nice 'white' T10 parkers for lenny.
This was a quick and easy mod to convert the old opposite pin park blubs to newer T10 Style.

Was as simple as a step down drill bit via the old rubber bung that led the positive wire into the socket.

Run a T10 Wedge socket (little cheep rubber ones can be had from an auto shop for $1) down the middle.

Seal with some sikka flex

DONE

That would depend on the style of wedge globe you use.

This is an option for those who are running hid's that use the old oppasite pin bulbs for parkers, and want a quick and easy way to run the wedge style globes to match the hid lighting.

They are a good globe and a good bright source of light (spesh for oem reverse lights), but will not match the white or blue light from a 6000 - 8000 hid globe
