Hi all 
I'm Chris, from Gloucester. Usually over on www.106owners.co.uk (I'm the semi-proud owner of a 1.1 ), but I've registered on here because 1) I'm a bit of a fan of the Corsa B, and 2) I'm looking for some information regarding the back lights on a five door corsa b.
Basically, a friend of mine has bought some clear light clusters, which didn't include bulbs (these).
Now they're fitted, we tried out the bulbs, and guess what? That's right, all the lights are white . So, we've got orange bulbs for the indicators, and a set of red bulbs for the brakes, and you obviously have the reversing light. But what we now can't figure out, is how many normal red coloured bulbs should be in the light unit - because it looks like a 5 section light, and it looks like there's two different places for the normal red light to come out of (top and bottom IIRC). I need to know what goes in each part, and whether it's just four bulbs and I'm being stupid, or if it's actually five, and you need more than one bulb for the normal back lights either side - and which type of bulb they are.
Sorry for the bit of an essay, and if this is in the wrong place, then mods feel free to move it, still finding my way round!
Cheers for any help guys!
