WTB: Stock Foglamp Bulbs:idea:

Postby ash06 » Mon Aug 31, 2009 7:47 pm

Hey guys,

I just bought a set of ebay foggies and well accidently smashed one of the supplied globes
I don't really wanna shell out $65 for Philips bulbs on these as i won't be using them much..
So if anyone has changed theirs to a a brighter or higher temp bulb and still has the stock bulbs can you please post here and i can make an offer? :D


Kind Regards,
Ash

Just go to Repco/Autopbarn and buy a regular $10 globe. That'd be much easier

Yeah as SIR VRX said a standard $10 globe from the auto store should do the trick. I wouldn't imagine there would be much difference in colour/brightness

The globe you're after is a H11 globe for the CJ Fog lights

Hey went into my local Autobarn and Supercheap
& long story short Supercheap had no idea what i wanted, (a H11 bulb) "are you sure it's not a H1?" - They had nothing that would fit.
and Autobarn only had a phillips set for $55 :S

Is anyone willing to sell me their old ones if they still have them?


Kind Regards,
Ash

Go somewhere decent like Repco.

They have them. if they don't tell them to at least look it up in the computer. (I know this being an occasional Repco employee :wink:)

Why people bother with Supercrap and Ricerbarn has me beat. (Not having a dig at you Ash) The NEVER stock anything that is needed. And they always try to sell you the "better product" for more money. Pfft.

Edit: And to make it completely fool proof in case you get some stupid teenager at Repco, the brand is Narva, the part number is 48078.

Hey thanks again for the info,

No offence taken, I'm not a fan of Autobarn at all.
Supercheap seems to do okay for me,

I'll check out Repco on the way home from uni tomorrow, hopefully i'll find the goods!

Hey i went into my local Repco today,

The Narva bulbs were $45, not bad, but i'd think i could grab a pair of second hand ones here cheaper i'd imagine?

Anyone care to sell me theirs? Please just PM me if you see this

Are you sure the ebay foggies you have are the same bulb as the stock ones? H11?

Just a though that's all. Would suck if they were H3 or something.

If they are H3 I have a set lying around in Arctic Blue, brand new!

I now feel like a tosser. I just went and looked in my cupboard and found a spare set of H11s!!! So somehow I have 3 sets. The pair I just found, the pair I upgraded to and my stockies. Who know where they came from, but you can have them. They are in a PIAA box too, so they won't get damaged. And they work.

PM me your address and I'll send them your way.
