if u got a non-facelift model theres a screw in the b/w the indicator and fog light just unscrew that and the indicator comes straight out.. ALTHOUGH im just assuming thats how to get to the parkers because the park lights are on there when u have your lights on and fog lights off.. if u know what i mean

Ok if you got the pre-face lift bumper, there's actually some plactic nob/tip ( what ever you call them) that hold the lights in place as well.
So if your lights are stuck after you took out the screws, that mean your lights are still in good nick, all you have to do is put your hand behind the light, which mean on your knees & get behind the bumper bar & push it out.

Pretty sure you'll find blue lights anywhere on the outside of the car are illegal in every State.

the only way to be sure if its legal or not is to call up VICROADS!!!

to get to the parkers, u put get to them by putting your hand from underneath the front bar... then u reach inside to the back.... dont have to unscrew the light or open the bonnet...

Underbody neons ARE illegal if you have them switched on while yr driving. If just are parked u can have them on as long as u want.

Im in sydney, i also emailed someone in rta before and i asked him if its legal. a resounding NO, cars only allowed to have a clear or yellow parking lights. anyway i still have my blue parkers...and yes i dont wanna remove them, IT LOOKS SO DAMN GOOD.
A pair of T10 will do it cost around $20 for a pair.

sif $20 for a pair of T10? i got mine for $7
i done think yellow would be legal on vic roads... coz yellow should be used for foglights, and foglights should only be used when there is fog!
