Info on lights.

I'm looking for replacement bulbs for the running lamps. To me they look dull/yellow, especially when compared to the head lamps. Any suggestions?

Thanks. That's exactly what I'm looking for. Were they easy to swap out. I haven't even looked.

Yes, just pop the hood and fish your hand behind the headlights. I don't remember if you need to twist the bulb to unlock it.

Those look great. I may be doing that this weekend as well.

unplug wire harness from the socket, then twist the socket 1/4 of a turn counter clockwise

I'm experimenting with the Carlab HID retrofit kit for the foglights. I will do a complete report on it once its done next week. I currently have PIAA Extreme White Plus 9006 bulbs in my right foglight and stock bulb in my left (dealer replaced the cracked fog light but forgot to put my bulb but on....... since I'm going HID anyways, I just let this one slide).
