    Side lights are normally a 501 push in style no metal end
    Indicator bulbs get silvatec bulbs they are orange but thr outer coating is silver

    Yeah I thought the sidelights would be the push in ones, thanks for confirming that :wink:

    What fitting are the indicator bulbs? Are they w21w, push in ones but bigger?

    Thanks for your help mate :wink:

    The bulbs needed for an 04 WRX

    Headlight bulbs - H1
    Indicator bulbs - W21W (push in type, like sidelight bulbs)
    Sidelight bulbs - 501 (push in type)
    Main beam - HB3

    Not sure about fog lights?

    I'm upgrading my lights this weekend.

    I'm going H1 Hid kit for the dip. (Does anyone have any experience or advice for which kit and colour temperature is best?)

    Led side lights.

    Led fog lights. (Is the Blobeye foglight bulbs an H3?)

    Thanks.

    Perfect.
    I was thinking between the 6500 and the 8000. I'd rather have performance than good looks. :)

    Cheers.

    Just need to confirm the foglight bulb now. :?
