Hey Peeps,

Ok so I bought some after market led parking lights to get rid of the old yucky yellow ones but i can't find were they clip into i have tried looking but all it feel's like is that I'm about to brake some sort of loom.

I can get to my actual lights fine but the parkers seem to be a whole lot harder.

Need some fresh idea's or advise cheers.

The parkers are separate, they are in fact a lot easier to do than the main headlights. You should be able to see a small grey plug towards the outside of the headlight assembly, I've attached a picture indicating the parker. Just twist it to the left and it should slide right out.

Yes you basically have to reach right into the corner - you'll feel the little plug sticking out. Simply turn it counter clockwise a bit and it'll pop out. Installation is exactly the reverse. Those with big hands may struggle with it.

Hi guys, just digging up an old thread real quick...

Can anyone confirm if removing the parker bulb is the same process for an R34 with factory Xenon headlights? I'm having a few issues myself getting them out!

Cheers! and Merry Christmas :cheers:

Still only halfway through haha, will need to unbolt the bottle on the passenger side and maybe even take off the pod, but otherwise seems pretty straight forward! The drivers side LED went in perfectly btw, thank you!

      R34DE as in R34 with an RB25DE? So did you get this? Or you planning to?  I'm not really sure what you're saying.

      Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.

      Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.

      Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?

      1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
