The passenger side low beam on my 2004 sedan went out and I figured out that it wasn't the fuse so the next step is to find out if the bulb is bad. I found the part number to be HID-D2R, but the local parts stores want like $100 bucks for them. Does anyone know what an aftermarket replacement part number would be?

Also, I noticed the reflector was jiggling around in the housing, but I couldn't get the wheel well cover off to take a look. Could it be loose and causing the problem, or would it probably be broken?

 

What did you do about this? I just had a similar issue with my 04 sedan. The passenger side bulb is out after an alarm was installed on my car. I see it flicker on as I turn them on but it quickly fades out.

 

I ended up buying these:

I think they're just some Chinese knockoff since they're not really the same color as my other bulb, but it works and they come with a free, 1 year warranty. They also shipped really fast. However, I saw some posts from a Google search where people were claiming they had problems with the bulbs, but they were all from 2011. I took the chance and am happy so far.

 

So many bulbs to choose from? I wish I could hear more feedback from you guys.

Anyone point me to an older thread about the best bulbs to buy - currently ?

 

I picked up a replacement for $76 on line. I order it the day before Christmas, and it arrived the day after.
Then I noted the aftermarkets one for two for $50 on line. It works, and I did not have to replace the 2nd lamp! less work yea! If it goes out this year, I will be kicking my self.

 

I bought the set from Statik performance, I even bought two pairs just in case. So far the lights work great
