Hi All sorry to post such a novice question
What are the bulb sizes for Number plate bulbs and how easy are they to change? And the interior bulb
Am I right in thinking that sidelights are 501, headlights are H7 and Main beam are H1?
 
Maybe these links can help? Sorry I don't know how difficult they are to change as have only replaced side lights so far.

Headlight

The headlight bulbs are extremely fiddly if you have man hands. Usually involves lots of swearing and cuts too lol.

Good luck :)
 
That's true the headlights are very fiddly iv done it myself several times as I have small man hands hahaha

Thanks Andy
I still don't know whether 501 would fit into reg plate bulbs

THANKS
 
I'm not 100% sure on it, but looking at the diagram they look very similar to the push-in type side lights (think they are described as 'wedge'). I have fitted side lights and that is definately the correct type for 'side lights'


501's

If you look at Item 8 Headlight it is the same as Item 1 Reg Plate. Same part number so I would say its the same bulb for side lights and reg lights.
 
Thanks a lot Andy I think your right, I see your from my neck of the woods
Scotland :D
 
I live in fife Andy, what about yourself?

I have ordered the new plate bulbs

The plastic cover on top of the number plate bulbs looks as if it needs to be slid to one side to be taken off, although mine seems stuck and dont want to break it, anybody know anything about this?
Thanks
 
Just down in Glasgow Asim, does this help with the bulbs?

Thanks mate
You change them from inside
 
Nearly found out the hard way
Almost broke plastic cover Lol!
That's not the only bad news, driving future seems uncertain as I got pulled for a couple of things..... don't really wanna say all in all that was a bad day

What engine is in yours? I'm coming to get hids done from Glasgow in a few weeks
 
My bad just seen yours is a Vtec sport so I'm guessing it's a 1.8 or 2.0
