Headlight Bulb/ 02 sensor/ Brake issue ADVICE!!!

Alright so, I need to buy an DR2 bulb and the clearance strip bulb. Im trying to get the best price for a good bulb. Not something cheap that will burn out. Does anyone know where I can order these bulbs and what brands would you recommend? On average how much for a pair? Should i buy a pair, I only need one but id rather replace both if they're going to look different.


Changing my oil tomorrow for the first time DIY. Bought some mobil synthetic 10w-30 from Walmart and a K&N oil filter from autozone.

I have a service engine light on. Autozone says its my 02 sensor. I already bought the OEM one just need some tips on installing it. I know I have to take the negative off the battery to reset. I dont know exactly where it is located (I believe near the exhaust). What should I expect??

Now for my brakes issue. Whenever Im on the brakes coming down to a low speed, my brakes make a springy-pumping sound. It kind of feels like the ABS is kicking in but Im not sliding. Im guessing its an ABS issue. Has anyone experienced this or know what the problem is? Im going to take it to the trusty neighborhood mechanic and see what he thinks.

And something interesting I noticed... when I was accelerating the "slip" light flashed, but i wasn't slipping. IDK! Ill keep an eye out for this, doesn't seem like an issue just curious.

I could really use some help as to where to purchase my bulb at the right price and quality. Some 02 sensor help would be greatly appreciated as well. Im a g35 noob. Its my first car and I love it. Perfect car for me, I believe. I plan on taking great care of it.

ANYWAY, thanks for the help if any

Headlight bulb go to our MARKETPLACE under vendor Accessories, Mr. Wong will sell you a quality bulb or you could go to the dealership. The O2 sensors are located on the exhaust, 2 one each side but you'll need to find out which one threw the code. You can swap that out while doing the oil change. The brake issue doesn't sound like a ABS problem, have your favorite mechanic check out the entire brake system....pads/rotors/calipers.

Is your ABS light solid while driving? Are you running stock sized tires? I had to get a D2R last week, I purchased one from Advance Auto Parts for less than $70 (Osram/Sylvania brand). Somehow my OEM one cracked and blew out. What side of the country are you on?
