a nearside front headlamp bulb from please?

 

A friend who looked at it says it looks as though the whole lamp has to come out in order to change the bulb - is this right?

 

Thanks in advance guys :-)

Doh, guess I should have said it's for a Jap import 1991 J Reg 300ZX Fairlady

No you dont have to take out the whole lamp, its the same as 90% of cars out the just the bulb bit comes out the back.

 

Do a search for "bulbs where from" should get loads of results.

For Jap Import you either need a H3C headlight bulb, or convert the housing to accept a regular H3 headlight bulb (involves wiring up the an early wire) - Cant find instructions right now.

 

I thought I saw H3C bulbs in halfords the other day, but have definatly seen them on ebay.
