I tried doing lights on, lights off, turn signals on, hazards on, brakes, every combination I can think of, and I can't get that light to turn on, on my '04 RS, which is stock. That is why I ask what that bulb is, and how it turns on.
*edit*
It may be that both bulbs on my '04 are just blown out, which seems ridiculous, but is probably the case. What are the chances???

its possible, but they turn on when you turn your switch to the middle and stay on when turned fully on (headlights on).
I had one of these out for months and was part of my failure on my inspection.

So, finished installing the interior, then I got the headlights back on. The car looks whole again!
But the cooler part, is last video people asked me to rev it, so, here is a video of the car running, and a quick walk through. It's louder than I remember

Either way they are well priced, especially if they are a nice sturdy seat!

Final stages. I started final assembly of the headlight wiring. Thanks to Dan, I got some nice 6 wire weather packs, and crimped on the wire ends to make my headlights quickly removable. Here are some pictures:
Up until this point, I just had the wires taped together for testing, but now it's the real deal!
Last night, I also let the car run for 15 minutes to fully warm up, and check for leaks, oddities, etc.. I am going to have emery tweak the tune a little bit for cold-start and warm-up, but once it's warmed up, idle is solid, and we know WOT is perfect. I may see some road time this weekend
