GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

Ok, so I did a search for changing lights and even looked through the Maintenance forum for a post about how to change the lights in the Vibe and couldn't find one, so don't get mad at me if this has been discussed before. I bought new Euro lights for the headlights, foglights, and back-up lights, and as I don't have a Maintenance manual and it's not in the owners manual, how do you change all these lights? I'm sure this is old, so if you can just direct me that would be great. I will keep looking until I get a response.Edit: Go figure, found it!

So, here is what all the fuss was about. Totally not worth the $50 if you ask me. I was expecting a lot more dramatic color from the. They were all "supposed" to be purple, like a dark purple according to the pics on ebay, but this is what I got. The rears are the closest thing to it and they look more pink to me. Oh well, time to go get the condoms!Well, let's hear it....

not a purple fan, but they still look pretty cool.

I like those backup lights! Where'd you get the bulbs? Can you post a link?

Just run a search for them and you will find all their stuff. TBHWY I wasn't too impressed with them. If you look at their ads, they look a lot different than what I just installed. They show their color to be a whole lot darker and brighter purple. That is what I was expecting. Oh well, you live and you learn! They are brighter than the stock bulbs, but those backup lights do me no good now as I can't see them at all like I could with the white. Your $$, your choice. Just giving my $0.02!

Not sure if I'll get 'em... I do like the color, but think I may need to stick with white. I can't see anything back there as it is.

How about you just strip yours and sell it to me for $100 and then you can just redo yours later! I've seen kits on ebay for like $300, but not sure of their quality. If it's anything like I just got I will pass and spend the $300 on an alarm or something more useful.

Well, it was mostly a joke...there isn't really a plug and play system for the kinda bulbs used in the rear cornering lamps...With some retrofitting, it could be done...Not something I plan on doing anytime soon though...
