$14 from Autobarn there the new l.e.d ones just realised you just put them in where the original parkers are. There located just under the main bulb in the headlights. They come in about 8 colours and theres one with 7 colours in it and one with 10. well worth it i think.

In qld : Not allowed to have ANY under car neons and not allowed to have ANY coloured lights facing forwards, except amber indicators, or yellow foggies (must only be used in fog) - coloured parkers and coloured windscreen washers are illegal in any colour.

You can save money and just buy the silicon sleeves they are $2 a pack in red blue or green and you get 5 sleeves to do ur park globes with, hence 3 spare... I got the blue sleeves on mine and ahvent had any hassles from coppas...yet hehe Better than paying $10 for a pair of colored ones

I don't even have parkers in my car and i've never been picked up for it... But they're right, no other colours than white or amber indicators. And yellow for fog lights but there must be poor weather conditions to drive with ANY fog lights on. YES, you can't drive around on a fine night with fog lights, i was warned about it when i was driving the old mans Subaru Liberty.

I got done not 8 hrs after rego'ing my car for blue parkers - didnt know they were there until the cops did me for them. $75 and 1 point for "Driving a car that does not comply" in particular "Blue Park Lights". Legislation is such that ANY external light on a car is illegal EXCEPT - white/yellow headlights/parkers/foglights at the front of the car only; yellow/orange turn signals; red brake/parker at the rear of the car only; and white reverse lights at the rear of the car only - ANY other external lights are in breach of this legislation and will get you a fine if that cops think you deserve it - interestingly enough INTERNAL lights in the car may be of ANY colour, but the only ones that are allowed to be on while the car is in motion are the dash illumiation lights (ie, not allowed interior light on while driving).
