imi-7 Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 I have just bought some Xenon bulbs from ACEparts in Kent for my '94 Non-Turbo SZ. However, I have found that the 9005 65W bulbs fit OK into the dipped headlights, but the 9006 55W do not seem to have the right fitting for the High Beam (the bulb housing seems too big compared to the standard fits). Has anyone got any advice- have I put these bulbs in wrong way around? Also, how do you change the side lights- is it easy? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pot Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Is the the fix where snipping is required?... (Never done it myself, only remember reading about something having to be cut out...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifty Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 9006 are a different diameter at the centre and wont fit 9005 will fit but you have to trim the 3 lugs down a bit AND modify the loom clip by cutting away the 2 ridges. Its all here on the site ; search for bulbs m8 Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imi-7 Posted January 27, 2007 Author Share Posted January 27, 2007 Silly question, but whats a loom clip? (as you can see I have no idea ;-) ). Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifty Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 its OK ;just the wires that plug into the back of the bulb holder has 2 slots in it that mate up with the bulb holder I had to cut em away to get the clip to fit Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imi Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 for Jap lights 9005....I didnt need to trim anything, straight fit. Ideally the size is 9006J - but 9005 does the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imi-7 Posted January 27, 2007 Author Share Posted January 27, 2007 Thanks. That accounts for the dipped lights and Beam, but how do you replace the Side light bulbs...is it easy to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
