Xenon Bulb Replacement On R34 Gtt

[deejay_jun]

Hey All,

I own an r34 gtt with xenon headlights and the bulb on the passengers side has died.

I'm having difficulty opening the headlight to remove the dead xenon bulb.

There's a larger circular piece behind the bulb area that looks like it can be rotated to remove but it won't budge.

Can anyone please provide some steps on how to replace the xenon bulb?

Thanks in advance!

Hi there, the way i opened mine was just to rotate it counterclockwise.. maybe you have to use a little bit more force? I'll be putting in xenon bulbs tonight/tomorrow afternoon so i'll double check..

while I'm at this. the way to get the bulb out is just squeezing the bottom bit (where it connects to the wire) together yeah?

cheers

I changed mine yesterday..

There should be a little screw before u turn the cap.. u should see it..

after you unscrew take the cap off..

After you should see like 2 clip pushing the light inside just unclip that and you can change your bulb..

Hope that works for you..

hey i have a 34 but no xenon, (i think). how do i know if i have it? is there a power supply or something like that?

[deejay_jun]

Thanks for the replies!

I saw a small screw towards the right side of the black circular piece, I'll try removing that.

Cheers!

hmm mine didn't have screws..weird but i changed the bulb.. in about 20mins and that include fiddling with the battery to get my hands behind de lights of the driver side.

woohoo.. not hard at all.. I'm just waiting for night to test out the white light. So Deejay how's it going then?

I am pretty sure 99.9% that all R34's have xenons. If you look at your head light it says the word xenon below the bulb on the main headlight not your parkers like you have on in the picture in your sig.

all r34s brought in under sevs shouldn't have xenons, they're removed at compliance. People do put them back in though.

Hey guys,

I was finally able to replace the bulb, the circular cap was screwed on incorrectly making it difficult to remove.

Now my problem is, it's a different colour to my old bulb.

Anyone know where I can order another bulb in melbourne?

I'm looking for a D2R bulb, 6000k temp.

What is a decent price for one?

I saw some on ebay but they are some crappy taiwan brand. I'd prefer the philips hid bulbs

Cheers!

Hi,

Thats interesting as someone else mentioned that, so far all the R34's I have seen had them so I assumed that they kept em, do you know why they had to be removed? Is it cause they are so bright or something cause I know the ones I had are super bright.

No washers and no auto leveling.

hey there mate.. if you head over to the dealer's side of the forums, batmbl and sullivanB (i think that's both the nicks) sells those xenon bulbs.. not expensive.. check it out

[ducki]

does it have to be replaced with factory bulbs? or any other brand will do as long as its correct size?

[deejay_jun]

yeah, as long as the bulb type is D2R, should be fine. I think D2S might fit???

If you look at the Hella catalog, most of their bulbs are philips.

check this mob out also - they may be able to do a deal for you.
