Default What is the equivalent of the 99 1.6 EL?

Hey, I've got a 1999 Acura 1.6 EL. I need to replace the front right signal light... but I can't really find any avaliable. Isn't this model the same as a civic or something?

It would be a Civic EX, but the light housings are completely different if I'm not mistaken. I think you're going to have to run to the Acura dealer and get the light from them.

the trunk lid, hood, fenders, and bumper is different too not to mention the acura badging inside and out. other than that structurally they are just the same as the civic.

oh boy, I can finally help someone! I have an 1.6 EL too.

The light size is 194. Just in case you don't know, a clear one provides brighter light.

I have no idea which, if any Honda's use this bulb.

The model is very similar to the Civic (99 EX 4dr US VERSION) (99 Civic Si Canadian version). The differances Monicle noted are accurate. However, a handful of parts are not the same (i.e. keyless entry computer ($400), so make sure the part is the same before you buy. I can help you with some parts, and others you might want to try:

Oh, by the way, if you got the leather seats they're nearly identical to GSR ones
