Got soem Smoked rears through today to replace the Lexus lights that were on the car when I got it, took one of them off and there's only 3 bulbs, but in the new lights there is 4 bulb holes.

I know pretty much nothing about modding so hopefully someone can help me and tell me what I need to do.

Also will I need new bulb holders?

Cheers

Looks like the guy who had the car before me chopped all the wires about :(

Anyone know where I can get new bulb holders?

Scrapyard m8 it`s possible that the old lights used a single filament bulb like one for the brake light & 1 for the fog light.On your new light 3 bulbs could mean you
use a double filament bulb that takes care of the brake light and fog light.

I had to get new bulb holders when i changed my lights fom lexus to standards. You would get some from a breakers, or could buy a really cheapo set of standard lights with bulb holders.
