B4 side lights

I want to change out the standard ones for white ones so i took out the bulb last night to see what type it was. The bulb has 2 filaments in it which is not unusual but i've no idea what the second filament is for cause it never lights up no matter what lights i switch on or off. I took off the other side but the bulb was the same as well. The connector is a 3 pin connector so does any1 know what it is for or are any1 elses bulbs different?

The second filament is for when you indicate. The side light comes on with it! :thumbsup:

Nice one! Where did you get those from? And your white lights over reg plate? Nearly sure it was your car i seen them on. Can't find them anywhere.
 
thanks for bringing this up.....was only wonderin after the meet on thursday why the side lights need to come on when indicating.....what is the purpose of this?
also dan can you tell me what type of bulb is in the side lights......are they bayonet cap or are they the capless type. cheers mick
 
They are Bayonet cap (just googled what that is) with opposite pins.. other than that, same size and shape as the indicator bulbs..
