    Question Replacing front right indicator bulb, Help thanks

    Hey all,

    i only just noticed yesterday that my front (Drivers side) right indictor light/bulb has just blown. The one right next to the headlight.

    Are the bulbs u get from Kmart, supercheap, petrol stations etc fine to use as a replacement, and what are they called ????

    And how easy is it to change them in the front ???? Had a quick look but could only find the access to the headlights bulb......is it in the same place and i have missed something ????

    I have done the rear ones before but not the front ones

    Thanks for the help

    Ac

    they are hidden in the corner, so you have to dig deep behind the the lights and theres no cover unlike the head lights. just a simple twist and thats the bulb holder.

    i THINK you may need to buy a special bayonet cap type, because i have notices that the 2 pins on the side of the car ARE NOT exactly opposite to each other unlike regular bulbs =/

    just pull the busted one out and use it as a sample

    I'm pretty sure that's the case too. If the globe is coloured, that is definitely so. That means they only go in one way so need to be lined up correctly when being installed.
