That's not a parking light globe. That is a main headlight globe.

You've touched it (the quartz envelope) with your fingers and now it's f**ked, so you have to buy replacement for that too.

na its the fog lights/parking lights and it was dead thats why i thought to replace it

ive checked all the lights and its all working except that one bulb

That is an H1 headlight globe. Not a parker. 55W, quartz halogen.

Outer are the headlights yea and the parking/fog lights are the ones inside? still working even though I left the bulb out

I bought some white LED lights for the front parkers as the stock one come out yellow.

Cant get access to the damn thing to remove the bulb.

Any suggestions?

I am not certain on the point, but these lights look like your running lights, which are specifically coloured towards the yellow spectrum, as it is more easily seen in fog. And as such may even be required by law to be coloured like that.

    • Greetings to you all, It's an honour to be part of the great forum. I’m happy to learn and build good  relationships with members of this community. Thanks for having me!    
    • normally i don't like to get involed with these kinds of self promotions stuff, but good on you for living your dream man.
    • Remember our cars are 30+ years old so expect the rubber bits to leak. I'd go around your engine bay with a can of "start ya bastard" or similar and look for leaks. FYI I got my car 10+ years ago with the standard boost restrictor in place, I removed it when I got it and the car never had any issues since (besices a leaking manifold gasket). tl;dr- Look for leaks before proceeding.
    • That SSR is actually the same (or similar) as the Jaycar 100AMP SSR (which I use). They suggest the resistor to stop the SSR turning on when the ECU turns off (I believe). I personally don't use the resistor as I use the 5V output from the ECU to supply power to the SSR. I do however run a flyback diode, the old Haltech documentation was wrong too and didn't specify the fly back, I mentioned it to a few of their staff and they eventually added it in.
    • I did manage to do this without removing the engine or front cross member, but I had the advantage that the exhaust manifold was removed. I am not setup to support the engine from the top or remove it. 1. Loosen the engine mount nuts so they only have a nut of thread. If it is a manual, I think you have to remove the gearbox to engine support brackets. 2. Jack up the engine off the bottom idler mount. Jack it up till the end of the slot and nut on the mount. You need this clearance to get the pan out at the rear of the engine. 3.Break the sealant seal to sump. I found a oil pan separator tool helpful to get it started. 4. The oil pick up can be removed with the gap available.  5. The oil pan can be removed now. 6. Before assembling, do not apply sealant to the oil pick up area as your hand will rub it all off but apply to the other three and a bit sides. 7. It is a two man job to put the oil pan back, with the sealant, as you do not want it to touch anything and rub off. 8. With one person supporting the oil pan the other can fit the oil pickup 9. Apply the remaining sealant. This would be more difficult with the manifold or turbo in place, but I think it could be done. As you can see my sealant is a bit ugly, but good enough to seal. 10. Lift the sump up to the engine and bolt it on. We found it was easier to use two long guide bolts at each end to get it nice and aligned without touching.
