Thank you RepyT,
Yes sir, it appears the REVi Motorwerks Depo smoked sidemarkers on Amazon have amber bulbs included, so hopefully they will conform to the local standards. Have seen some positive reviews, so hopefully will be ok.
I had a lot of sidemarkers on my fk8 already and those are the absolute best. You won’t be disappointed

Thanks gents, I have those Phillips U-bulbs in red somewhere inside Wannabe Type-R Ridgeline, I think as overhead rear dome (not spot maps), really bright. I wonder if the yellow corner ones you guys went with come with house brand LEDs but if they’re decent so what, prolly not incandescents, I bet too eesh Chinese yerrow wanz

My CTR corners use Phillips T10 from Auto Zone, the Bright, not Super Bright as that was the quick solution. They’re very reptilian at night. Just ordered my fave build brand below in yellow to make them pop.

My favorite Brand/Type LEDS are from Auxito, they aren’t kidding about brilliant red, ordered twice (spares and Ridge upgrade?) These are convincingly brighter than most politicians. Also got the Xenon Whites and turned wife’s’16 Highlander from dingy yellowish Incans to a hospital operating room replacing all interiors with these so she can work on her tan when getting in or out.

The red CTR pictures (no flash) try to show there’s enough red glow from a pair of these to be decent overhead door activated domes for everything but reading (late 50s here so that takes reading glasses anyway) Of course I used the Auxito XWs for maps for the full beam me up Scotty effect in the CTR.

Try a pair of these in Xenon White for that Poltergeist TV effect.

I installed an AWE Tuning track edition exhaust. Nice kit!!! Fit was great and went together without any problems. The sound is nice at idle.I had a short video but I couldn't upload to the forum. Hopefully get to road test it this week if I get a chance. Rest of the day is tied up with family stuff.

Did the JDM clear marker light upgrade and also the yellow foglight update. Two of the easier things to do.

I got my parts from JHPUSA and am very happy with the service. Easy to do business with them as well.

Ordered a Radium coolant cap to replace the OEM.

OEM cap doesn’t look bad on the coolant expansion tank.

Radium Cap installed for the “completeness” factor. Looks nice, but literally takes 20x the effort to screw on compared to OEM. Had to press with everything I had using both hands.

It is a little disappointing the Radium coolant expansion tank does not come with this cap standard and makes you purchase it separately :(

The sight glass level also developed this annoyingly air bubble. Tried tapping it to get it to go away, but no luck. Hopefully won’t have to pull the tank and re-tighten the fittings

Mine has the same air bubble. It comes and goes. I wouldn't worry about it.
