Take them out, it's not that hard. might have to use a socket set as they are very tight when using the screwdriver bit.

The bulbs are the type that come with a short lenth of cable.

They are PIAA bulbs - you can get them from Subaru dealers, part number SACC2414, about £20 each.

Hope this helps.

They are H3 bulbs. You need yer head examined if you pay £20 a bulb from a Dealer

I paid £10 (for two) from Halfords for 120W. My PIAA's kept blowing every 4 weeks, so I gave up on them over 3yrs ago.

I have some pics on my website if you're not sure how to replace them.

hmm, works for me.

can some try replacing the www.stefanostadal.homedns.org with 62.31.117.11 for me.

I think it's the Dynamic DNS that's broke

Agreed - dealer prices are pants.

I also have a fitting guide on my website - point your browser at http://www.arnesta.freeserve.co.uk/bulbs.htm
