Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

    Parking lights

    Didn't know if this is where I needed to post this so let me know if I need to put to somewhere else.

    On a '93 Accord Ex coupe, all my lights "work". My problem is when I just activate my parking lights, the front ambers done come on. When I use my turn signals, they work fine, same with hazards. I don't know much about Hondas, but I'm pretty sure that this isn't proper operation.

    Also, on the outside of each headlight there is a lenscover with a bulb inside (I think its called a sidemarker?) How do I get to the bulb to check, because they're not working either.

    I can post pics, but it will have to be later (broad daylight right now) if its needed.

    Thanks again, you guys have really helped me out so far, its greatly appreciated.

    each corner light has 2 bulbs. one for the turn signal, and one for the parking...so the ones for the parking lights need to be replaced.

      the front bumper lens is only made to come on during signals and hazards, alot of us re-wired it ito come on during parking lights by running a wire to the side marker and changing the bulb and the base that holds it to 1157.

      as for the corner lights, open the hood, and u will see a bracket off that light, take the screw off and push or pull towards the front bumper of the car, its a bit stiff but it will come out. then you will find 2 194 bulbs in there.

      hheheh in the inner portion where the yellow amber is, i put a 906 bulb which is like 5 watts and havent melted yet =)
      What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

      You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

        If you're truly going OEM, the parking lamp bulb uses #3652=mini halogen, as noted on the back of the lens.

            Isn't there some wacky screw pointing inwards, protected by the windsheild fluid, and an extremely tight fit?

              You gotta remember though, your working with at least 13 year old plastic, and if you're not carfull, then your going to break all the fasteners that Honda decided they needed to put in there (a couple screws would've been good enough).

              If you've got a problem, I might have an answer... or a sledgehammer.
