Urgent... Need help

Hello everybody. I was wondering if anybody's little light bulb in their foglight/highbeam housing has gone out. Is it possible to change this by yourself? If so what is the bulb size of that small bulb. If anybody has any answers to any of these questions please don't hesitate to let me know.

Well, your not exactly a newbie, but try searching. Look up head light. I believe you need to get access to the head light from the fender well. You can either turn your front wheel so you have sufficient space to work or remove it completely. Then remove a few screws and what not and you will have easy access to the back of the head light. I used the jack and just jacked the car up on the side I was working on when I replaced my head lights. Took about 45 minutes to do both sides, good luck.

BTW, the bulb your are referring to is called a clearance light. Try searching "clearance light" and take a browse through the DIY section.

Here's a link to the replacements from PIAA 168 - Wedge
I plan to install the Xtreme White along with the PIAA Super Plasma fog/high beams this weekend. I will post pics.

That was one of the first combinations ever tried here on G35Driver back in 2002. The Xtreme White 168s are okay (I have them as well), but the Super Plasmas had an odd purple look to them. Some have burned out rather quickly as well.

The Silvania SilverStar 9003ST is a better match, and more reliable at a better price.
