Hey gang. Got a question about bulbs...
I had my high/low beams changed over to LEDs recently and really like it, but I noticed one of the other bulbs (park/auxiliary/I don't know what it's called) bulbs that comes on before turning on the headlights is out. To change it (and the turn signals) will the whole headlight assembly have to be removed like it did when changing the high/low beams?

Re: Headlight Bulbs
I haven't specifically changed bulbs on an M, but the front bulbs on almost everything Nissan can be reached by peeling back the wheel well liners, without needing to remove the headlight assemblies.

They have pics of most of the bulbs, too. Marker lamps on most Nissan products are T10 peanut bulbs.Rogue One wrote: ↑Fri Jun 30, 2023 5:56 pmIf you go to https://www.infinitipartsdeal.com/ and put in your VIN you'll be able to get almost every part number for your vehicle.

Re: Headlight Bulbs
I think the marker light is a 168/194 and if you have small enough hands you can get to it from the top, behind the assembly. Or use small pliers but be careful. It's VERY tight. But probably best to just remove the wheel, remove the wheel liner, and go that way. You do NOT need to remove the entire headlight assembly (which means dropping the bumper). That only needs to be done if you are replacing the HID Ballast.

Re: Headlight Bulbs
I think the bulb you're referring to is the one that's towards the corner of the headlight assembly. The one I'm looking to replace is near/under the turn signal bulb. Is that the same #? I looked at the site, but it's a little confusing to figure out what is what.Ilya wrote: ↑Sat Jul 01, 2023 7:32 amI think the marker light is a 168/194 and if you have small enough hands you can get to it from the top, behind the assembly.

Re: Headlight Bulbs
Both marker/parking lights in the headlight are 194's. That includes the one is the corner behind the amber lense and the one towards the middle of the assembly in between the low beam and turn signal.

Sweet. Thanks! I'm looking for an LED replacement for both since one of them is out.DoN_BLaZe34 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 02, 2023 7:07 amBoth marker/parking lights in the headlight are 194's.
