But at least they are that like.. fresh white color you see on some high end cars.

they arent diffrent sockets the reason for changing them is to use a higher duty socket as to not to run the risk of the harnest over heating and melting and posably shorting.Daew0Leganza wrote:but the socket sizes different? pep boy sells the wires... damn if the sockets the same then should have upgrades the wires then put better bulbs on...kinkyllama wrote:bump.
