Stamps Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Hey guys, Does anyone know where can I buy a replacement globe for the light in the climate control panel for my R33? It's the tiny little globe with a flat backed plastic retainer that you turn out with a screwdriver, it has the globes legs wrapped around it. As it's not a commodore or falcon part, Supercheap don't stock them, so does anyone know if a Nissan dealer would carry them or whether anywhere else sells them? I could always try converting the little plastic container to hold an LED but wouldn't mind just getting a replacement straight away. Also, I'm going to need a towbar soon for towing a bike trailer, so what have you guys with R33 Coupe's done about towbars? I've read some of the technical forums, but I'm not sure if the 180/200sx ones will fit, or whether I should just get a custom one made up. Any help or hints there would be appreciated! Cheers!

Stamps Posted September 23, 2008 Author Share Posted September 23, 2008 T-10 globes are too big, I've got a set of them here that I used in my old car. My trusty digital verniers have just informed me that the actual globe size is the T-5 size, however it's not the regular T-5 wedge or blade shape that you get at Supercheap, these globes live in a little plastic insert (and no, it's not just a wedge/blade globe stuck in there) which looks to me like the one unit (until you break the wires and pull the globe out like I did >_>) So they're a T-5 size, just not the standard connector. I'll check out that eBay store. Any ideas about the towbar anyone?

Madaz Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 go see a towbar specialist my understanding is R33's are only a half chasiss car and you will need proper purpose built stuff anyone confirm? as for the ebay store you wont find the globes your after but i know he does the kit so just message him and tell him what your after Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/237263-where-to-buywhat-to-do-dash-lights-towbar/#findComment-4151577 Share on other sites More sharing options...
