As the title says, my passenger side is goneskies, does it have to be a specific bulb?
I'am also considering changing the colour also, but dont know how to go about it. I was thinking of using those bulbs that are sorta blue'ish.

steps on how to replace busted bulb.

1. Take out busted light bulb (note: do not discard)
2. Place busted light bulb into pocket
3. Drive to some car automotive place
4. Give busted bulb to shop attendant
5. Buy new bulb that fits requirements (note: when buying bulbs, you get what you pay for, cheap is cheap)
6. Shove new un-busted bulbs in (note: do NOT touch the glass bit of the bulb at all, at ALL. Handle un-busted bulb as little as possible)

Its a pretty standard bulb and can get purchased from any automotive shop.

Although you will not be able to change the colour as the yellow is from the actual glass being tinted around the light.

The previous owner of my car has put a blue light bulb in trying to make it blue, but it still was yellow until recently when I noticed the bulb dieing it was a horrid green colour until I replaced the blue bulb with a proper white light.

So yeah... hope that helps....

yeah the glass is tinted yellow

coloured globes will just make them look weird, plus the fact that they are cop bait

from memory they are H7 or H12, when i got mine, they werent that cheap. probably because they arent mass produced and many cars done use them.

change both at once, or else one will be a little brighter than the other :)

Thanks every one, Nismodified I'm not that stupid :roll: :P
When I took the bulb out I realised I might have trouble getting a new one, because of the car being an import, not readily available. Hence the reason I asked.
With the colour change I was thinking to take globes out and put normal ones in and get some of those blue'ish coloured bulbs put in.
