CJ Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 I have a set of HID replacement bulbs (dipped) in my J-spec and normal for side and full beam. Would these fit into the UK glass assembly or would I need to order different bulbs tooo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 Originally posted by leett £55+vat for bulbs???? *shrug* Toyota eh! 4 bulbs, one H3, one 9005, one 9006 and a sidelight bulb. I got a pair of 9005's and 9006's from Envy for under £50 so it's probably better to source them from a non-Toyota source, you'll get better bulbs too!

Jake Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 Originally posted by mcanny 4 bulbs, one H3, one 9005, one 9006 and a sidelight bulb. Where do the 9006 bulbs go? Main Beam or Dipped? Somebody gave me some blueish 9006 bulbs the other day but I didn't think they fitted the Supra Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think (got bad memory) the full beam fit stright in, and the dipped have to but filed down a little bit to get them to fit. Or it could be the other way around:stupid: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 Originally posted by mcanny 9006's are dipped beam on the UK spec Yeah? I couldn't get them to fit in my JSpec dips. I cut the lugs down a bit with a Dremmel but still no luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to do with the climate, most go milky with age. Check out the referb option in the general section of the technical pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
