Rear light help please im desperate

[Paolo]

Hi everyone,it's not the first time i post about this thread i really need help,i need to change my rear turn signal to amber like in this video

Did anyone has idea on how to do this??
Thanks a lot

The style of bulb is pretty standard, nothing special about it, and they typically come in clear or amber.

Can't really tell from the vid if that outer lens is red or amber. I assume what you need in Europe is an amber outer lens?

It appears, at least to me, that the tail light lens is still the normal factory color. I would imagine that an amber bulb is the reason for the color.

Yes,i need the amber outer lens to match the europe standard,i already ordered a couple of led and they where fine,if it wasnt for the fact that when i brake they turn amber,i need a led that go amber only when i turn,and white/red for the brake and position,any idea?

Thanks all in advance

EBAY, EU Camaro tail lights. https://www.bing.com/images/search?q...ghts&FORM=IGRE

You could go to the lighting forum also researching , and do a search in the taskbar for key words such as European tail lights,.....Good Luck. They are out there somewhere available I am sure through GM for the right price for EU standards but if Italys different?

I already looked all over ebay and can't find anything
Now i have find this video
is it me or they look a little amber?

Thanks in advance

Why not just use a switchback bulb with a resistor. They sell red/amber ones as well as the white and amber a lot of us use for the front signals

[Paolo]

i've already tried the led,the problem is that when i brake it also turn amber

Yeah, because the brake and turn signals both use the same high circuit in the bulb. In the first post, only the outer is on for the hazards and I'm assuming that's not the case with yours. If you want the center taillights and high mounted brake lamp to all illuminate as brake lamps and the outer taillights to be turn signals, you will have to wire the car differently (I'm not sure what the wiring looks like or if this is possible) but if it is then you'll need resistors to keep the lights from blinking extra fast, then you'll need amber bulbs in the outer only.

But the nicer looking way to do this is to get a bumper for the EU model or even convert to 14-15 rear bumpers and get the EU taillights. Wiring is still going to have to be messed with no matter what



The last video you posted does not have amber lights, they are red. And they are exactly the same taillights, just baked open and with an added ring/afterburner light

Thanks all i have contacted them i hope they will reply,next week i will also see some mechanics to talk about the rewiring to do to have separate brake from turn signal,i would like so much to put some led like the oracle kit but here in italy it's all prohibited,i hate my country.

Are you looking for tail lights like this? Are there any Chevy dealerships over there that you can go to? Looks like the closest one to you may be in Spain . How do you folks get American cars imported to you (how do you buy them) ? I'd start there .

As for wiring, essentially you will need to run two leads from the front to the back. You need to tap the left and right turn signal in the front and replace the rear amber brake/turn circuit on each side with the 12V+ from the front. If you are adventurous, you can get those feeds from the BSM under the dash.
