R33 Globe Type

[dezz]

Hey guys, did a search but couldnt seem to find the globe type needed for the driving lights on a series 2 R33...

don't tell me to take out the ones already in there and check, as they are non existant....

i've found out that the headlights are H1, are the driving lights the same?

thanks

There are 3 in a light - the 2 strong ones, headlamps and hi beams are H1. The little one is a standard one, like a spade connector. Don;t know what it's called but you can get them anywhere...

[dezz]

sounds like you're talking about the parkers mate...im not

im talking about the driving lights, also referred to as fog lights that are in the lower part of a series 2 front bar, next to the indicator...

[Wink]

I would like to know this also, as I would like to get some white globes instead of the yellow stockers.

[dezz]

oooo go pull out your stockers wink....id do it, but i cant as they dont exist!

[dezz]

c'mon people...i need lights...its getting dark!

lol

get someone to check in nissan fast.. than ring nissan spare parts and find out what they are..

[MANWHORE]

f**k nissan fast. Someone just check. hahaha

[dezz]

you appear to have a 1997 R33...check for me

[justin911]

atleast 10000000 ppl have r33's its quite amusing noone can check

Tell me how to pull them out, and i'll do it tomorrow!

It's illegal to use them in suburban areas, and to be honest, I use them as often as high-beams. (read: I couldn't tell you if they even work!)

[dezz]

its not actually illegal to use driving lights....yellow fog lights yes, but driving lights no....the law says that if they dont "dazzle" other drivers they are legal, which basically means they need to be aimed right

to pull them out (the way i know) get under there and there is a twist off cap just like the headlights have...then there should be a plug that will pull out...

there's probably an easy way to pull out the actual light/indicator assembly and do it that way, but I haven't tried it yet, and as you can see people dont seem to keen to help out...

Harrr, matey! Thar she blows!

26719 or 27619A

Whichever one ISN'T the indicator globe =-]

Too bad it doesn't say what type of globe, just the part number.

Anyway I find the foglights for the Series2 are not dazzling or bright at all.

[dezz]

lol thanks but thats just part numbers from nissan...i just need globe type so i can grab globes at autobarn etc....

[Wink]

Tried to take the globe out this morning but can't because FMIC piping is in the way.

[RANDY]

They "dazzle" me, and i've always heard (once from a police officer) that the "driving" lights fall under the category of fog lights and can't be used as such.

I must be wrong, fair enough. =-]

(although if you drive behind me with them on, I will usually pull over, then follow with mine on. Not surprising how many people change lane when that happens, or dim their rear-view mirror)

[MANWHORE]

starsky, I would if I could. I'm away from my state atm. What you can do is this.

Get a torch and have a look on that plastic twist cap. It says what type they are. I think it's a H3.

[dezz]

lol at calling me starsky

thanks for the tip mate, ill have a look

[MspecR33]

yeah don't use the part number and go nissan genuine, you pay 5435623475987 times more for the part

I'll try to check mine if there is nothing in the way
