[rowska]

Hey People,

Im needing to know where i can purchase a new globe for an r33 series one spoiler as this is the last thing i need to get the road worthy done. I have tryed the local automotive stores they dont stock. if anyone knows where can get one it would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers Rowska

I think theyre a series of LED's (like the S2). Usually water/moisture gets in there and blows a resistor or two. Try seperating the lens and backing plate from each other to repair.

Someone on here will have a 2nd hand one in the for sale section if you cant find one. You can get an a/market cheapy just to get you through the RWC from supercheap/autobahn. They use double sided tape and stick to the underside of the old one... wires in the same. Ive got one here if you need

it is easier to just buy a replacement. the unit is sealed. i replaced mine with the internals of a toyota one that a mate got from work. not a direct fit but works. pain in the ass cracking it open.

+1 wrecked two dead ones trying to get them apart

How did you seperate it? heatgun/oven?

Where do you get them, i tried super cheap, autobarn, burson and repco and none of them stocked replacements of any kind.

i slowly hacked at it with a blade..ha took forever. wasn't the cleanest job but worked. never thought about using a heat gun at the time...probably would have made it easier. I got the toyota internals from a mate who used to work at a supplier that assembled those taillights. You can use any led internals really as long as it looks similar and fits.
