Hi,

I tried to change one of my parkers today as it had blown and had no luck what so ever.

Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction...

What i've figured out so far is that the red top bit which is showing near the wires needs to come off to release the globe so I can remove it from socket and replace? But I can't seem to locate the clip holding it or how to undo it.

If anyone could be of assistance it would be great, I've done some searching but nothing pops up for replacing r34 parker globes/bulbs....

Not sure about a red top bit though.

have a look at your headlights from the outside, staring at your parkers. locate the position. its the furthest to the outter side.

Now that you know where abouts it is. look behind your headlights and locate it from behind. there's no clips holding it in place. its a tight sqeeze if you have big hands or a big battery (remove Battery if thats the case.)

Should be a light grayish socket, get a firm grip onto it and twist the whole socket/plug clockwise until it becomes loose, if it doesnt seem to twist, try the other way(anti-clkwse).

pull it straight out and replace bulbs as normal.

Thank's guys will give it a try tomorrow.

Yeah going good, just doing minor "ricey" bits at the moment investigating 4 door exhaust's as thats my next real upgrade, got the teins in for a while now and a nismo rear sway bar on order so that should do the handling I hope.

Just fitted ultra white LEDS to mine, looks heaps better cos they match the Zenons realy well.

Where did ya get em from?

Cause i just finally changed mine lol and the Navara Artic Blue Ultra White's are not like my xenon's at all might as well have just stuck with normal white lights lol, though one was blown so needed changing.

I had the Narva one's too but as you found they just arn'nt white enough. The new LEDS i got are called 3A racing professional bulb series, brought them from Autobarn for about $8. (take your old one in to ensure you get the right ones)

After fitting the new LEDS, make sure they are working before re fitting back into position (as you know they are a pain to get out), if not working remove LED rotate 180 deg and refit.

I actually found it easier re fitting them while they were on cos you could see what you were doing.

Good luck.

    • Yeah kids certainly add a whole another dimension to your life.  Life ceases to be about you and more about them for a while!  And I wouldn't have it any other way.  I love watching them play sport and make new friends along the way. Wow, sounds like your mate is a good guy to know!!!  He's got some serious toys in the toy box!  Yes it would be lovely to be able to do stuff to your car without getting all tied up in boring shit like how to pay for it!!  I would describe my spending style as "aggressively spontaneous and logical but regrettable purchasing"....  That will hopefully make no sense at all which would be appropriate given that is how I buy stuff.  I'll decide at the drop of a hat that I'm buying something expensive, research the living shit out of it for 2 days straight then go out and buy it.  Then I'll have instant buyers remorse for 2 days which generally passes by the time it turns up on the front step!  If I'm feeling ballsy sometimes I'll tell my wife.  Other times it just makes its way silently passed the house and out the back to the shed, never to be spoken of again...
    • My extinguisher mounted like this unscrewed a little (Maybe from the chair sliding forward) and dumped a bit of white on my mats. I'll need to get a more narrow one for future.
    • I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.
    • I know which one I'd prefer to have in my garage, and which one I'd actually drive as intended
    • Yeah mate, no probs. Just swap the email addresses?
