I've never been keen on the look of the side marker sidelights (when lit against the headlights) or the fact they emit slightly less light than a small match. I've often been flashed when driving around near dusk when I think I've got lights on but with just the sidelights they're not always noticeable from dead ahead.
So I decided to move them to the headlights by just unplugging them from the side markers and putting them in the headlights. There is a cast mark on the back of the plastic outer headlamp already and the reflective inner has a hole already there for a sidelight bulb.
I decided to make it a little more different by bridging an extra set of wires and putting another bulb in the centre lamp so all 4 light up on sidelights.
They look quite yellow above and they look quite bright below!!! but htey're just standard 5w capless bulbs so in "real life" the light is kind of inbetween these two.
