    Anyone know exactly what type of bulbs needed for foglights?
    H3 or H3c or something else?

    Cheers Tim

    Most H3 lamps you buy will have a blade style connector on the end. The Z32 has a bullet connector.

    Be prepared to have to swap the single connector over when you buy new ones

    ^ also true, you can splice the wire and use the old bullet connector. very easy to do.

    the lazy option is to bend the spade connector to fit in the existing female bullet connector.

    35 watt to I think is STD, although 55 Watt will work fine. When I changed to 55 Watt, I had to change the 10A headlight fuse for a 15A, although since going to HID headlights, I have been able to change back to a 10A.

    I had to special order 35 watt ones. I reckoned 55w was too big for those small lamp housings.

    NARVA have 35 watt ones.

    I've had 55W H3's in my foggies for the past 5 years, without any problems.
