bulb replacement
Low beam bulb blew out last night. Before tearing the front end off; could someone give
me the direction to go on replacing ? Quick look it appears that I would have to release the
2 clips behind the assembly- is this correct ? Also, what's the latest hot bulb PIAA's ?
Thanks for the help,
Harry

Re: PIAA makes a 3800k bulb... the "Superwhite".
Ahhh... no, not xenon. Sorry.
For Xenon, Phillips and Sylvania are the main guys to buy from. I'd try a Google search for sources... =)
