city light e-code installation.
So, i got some e-codes and now its time to install them. All i have are the housings and am curious about getting city lights, there is a little spot for them. Where do i get the lights and the wiring?
Also id like to get some type of clear turn signal bulbs for the e-codes, any recomendations on where to get these from?
and one last thing, any tips on installing the lights? anything i should be sure not to do/break??
thank you for your info!

The city lights are w5w bulbs
That's surprising that they were missing. You can use plain w5w bulbs from a parts store, or some choose to use Philips Blue Vision bulbs in that spot, which produce light that is less yellow than clear bulbs (they are tinted blue, but the glow is not blue at all IMO). I chose to use the wiring kit from awe-tuning.com to connect them, though some folks were able to obtain the harness pins from a dealer.
You can find very good information on city lights in the "Euro Headlights" section of Mark P's site. This info is actually for the HID version, but the city light info applies to the halogens as well.
Regarding the turn signal bulbs, I chose to leave them amber. I may be in the minority, but I like the way that part of the housing (with the "robot eye" covering the amber bulb) changes appearance as you view it from different angles. YMMV. Good luck.<ul><li><a href="http://ctny.audiworld.com/mark/s4/index.html">http://ctny.audiworld.com/mark/s4/index.html</a</li></ul>
