ok so recently ive been to autobarn caz one of my headlights are out, they said my 32 is a H4 according to their lil book

ive had experiences with them recommending the wrong type of headlight globe before and not accepting a return

anyways, i need to change my low beam and i cant seem to take the globes out. it seems to be factory light globes and havent been removed before

theres lik a lil metal clip on top of it. do i just grip it and rip it out?? anyone changed their headlights on 32 gtst's before?

also im prob lookin at gettin those bright blue globes. good, bad?

plz help

i changed mine not to long ago, i should of done both at the same time.. now i have one brighter than the other.

push the spring clip down and tweak it up.. you shouldn't need to rip that clip out as u need it there to hold the globe

There is a clip that runs around the globe housing inside of the lens, 1 of them when pushed in slightly & will unclip- unlocks the globe and allows it to pull out, its really fiddly to do, if you have a missus with small hands she may be able to do it otherwise just bear with it, sooner or later you will unclip it and the globe comes out really easy, its another story to get the little blighter back in but after undoing it you will know how it works

bright blue projectors look like arse as well.. ;)

i know what you meant, but taken this way I like it more. yes, non-projectors are usually h4, and projectors are h3c. usually..

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
