    red32 You talkin' to me?

    I see from your sig pic that you have an import.
    These use a H3C globe in the low-beam... you don't mention whether it is low or high beam globe which has blown, and I don't know which high beam globe you need. Someone?
    If it's both globes at the same time, I'd be looking for an electrical/wiring fault.

    Yep

    Low beam and fog lights are H3C. Most people use H3 and the tech article on adapting them, as H3C can be hard to find and therefore expensive. H1 are the high beams.

    Ah, yes

    I think I remember the tech article saying that Nissan Australia had already done the necessary work to make the Aus Specs take H3 bulbs, so just imports that fit H3C and require the modification for H3 bulbs. My bad.

    I was surprised to see Super Cheap have H3C bulbs in the Super Works brand, $15 or something.

    That is surprising!

    Personally, I would go for higher quality H3 bulbs and do the work to add the earthing wire, but it's good the H3C option is there!

    Wow

    When I went to Super Cheap last week to look for H3C bulbs they didn't have them, then when I asked the guy there he said that he'd never seen that type before!!! :mad: :mad: :mad:

    So I just got some H3's that were a little more powerful and did the mod which was very very easy! :cool:
