I just got my turn signal bulbs (1156 21w) from ecelica and i tried to install them and the little knubs arent lined up right. What the hells up with that? They are directly across from each other, not offset a little like the orange bulbs that are stock. Anybody know?
you have to snap off or scrape down one of the nubs. they fit perfect with just one nub.
"I ride big body Benz, Gucci shade lens/ Me an all my friends got the platinum diamond grin/ Everything Im in spin, on 20" Larenz/ Lay back on buckskin, wit my braids in the wind."
i was thinking about cutting a knub off but didnt know if i should. Is that what everybody has to do or what? There has to be a bulb that fits it right.
jus cut a nub off. thats what i did. they fit perfectly fine.

I had the same problem, and I was wondering about it, I just left the bulbs in my tool box...I totally forgot about them!!! I'm gonna do them today over lunch!!!!
alright got mine installed. I used the nail clipper method. It worked really good. About the oils getting on the bulb i just held the bulb in a paper towel...hope that is ok for it. Thanks for the info .
yeah, freakin' toyota wants you to buy their $8.99 lightbulbs from their stores. i didn't snap it off, i use a file to shave some of it out. it fits tighter, just in case if it falls out...
Yeah, back in 2000 before there were a lot of these forums regarding the Celicas, I was wondering WTF is up with the turn signal lights. So I just scrape on of the nub off and it worked like a charm. I was not using the turn signal much tho since it was Red. I think red front turn signals are illegal, lol.
i just think its funny that people will not even try to solve the problem themselfs first... they just come and make a thread instead of thinking about it for a min...

I would probably do the same. I would definatly come on here before i took a file to my new bulbs.
yeah for real i didnt know if anything would get fucked up or anything so i thought i would ask and maybe others would learn from my question. you didnt have to reply.
