Tried a search but couldn't find what I was looking for.

My Xenons have been converted to halogen bulbs for compliance as with most 34s. One of the park lights(i think the one at the edge is the parker?) has gone and I need to replace it. I wanted to know what type of Halogen bulb I will need to buy to replace this and any suggestions on where to get these from?

Any specific tips for dissasembling the headlight would be great too. Thanks.

you should be able to take the globe out without taking the h/light apart . you can get the globe at any auto shop , take yours out and tested to make sure its the globe then buy one the same .

hmmm, unless its one of those damn stupid 'sealed beam' headlights (i think thats what they are called)

when the compliance guy did my brothers type x 180sx, he changed the whole headlight, and its sealed, so u have to buy the whole thing, cant replace the bulb, as the whole headlight is vacuum sealed! i dont think thats what you have, but it not too difficult to spot how to take the bulb out.

i've got h1 headlights on mine,, would so like some xenon headlights,,

anyways,, to get to the parker lights,,

u have to remove the battery or move it back atleast,, to get to the right parker light,,

some long nose plliers would help..

and to get to the left parker light,, you have to remove the intake box,,, should be bolted in 4 places,, and easy to get to.. also might have to remove the coolant reservoir tank,, 1 or 2 bolts i think,, than u can get to the parker lights easily.

the parker light sockets should be a twist on/ twist off plug,, twist left to unplug i think,,, thats if its the same parker lights as a H1 headlight..

either way, i think u'll have to remove all those things to get to the parker lights,,

hope it helps,,

AFRO

Thanks. Any help is appreciated.

Just wanted to really know whether I would have to do some serious disassembly to get to the back of the bulb or not.

Just haven't got a lot of time to spend taking things apart and putting back together.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
