Yep. It really sounds like it has to be the bulbs. I'll check them out at lunch time and see if they look burned.

Can anyone tell me what this piece is under the body in front of the rear wheel? Its only on the passenger side. The small tab you can see coming out from under the car.



It's the small, broken looking tab towards the front of the frame, in case this pic the confuses anyone.


And for fun, a Miata towing a boat

I think it's just a little wind diffuser thing.

Fairly sure there used to be one on each side. Maybe the one on the driver's side got scraped off?

Ill have to go check the other side. Its odd though, the piece that sticks out and is visible, is like a tab stuck up into the body.

Yeah man, no dice.

I checked the fuses and all looks good. I pulled the passenger side bulb and it looks fine, but I'll replace them both anyway. I've had bulbs look fine before and replacing them did the trick.

Yeah, pretty sure my car has those tabs on both sides. They're so you can get crazy sideways around corners without rolling the car.

^Yeah, same here. Never noticed it on the drivers side before. Maybe a small guard to deflect debris from the wheels/tires/brakes/suspension?? Pretty weak theory but I can't make sense of them.

does the OEM 350z front strut tower bar fit on our cars? and if not, what is stopping it from fitting?
