Parkers are 5w wedge globes same as your interior courtesy lamps etc

Orange rear indicator bulbs are 15w from memory and Narva make direct replacements.

On the topic of interior lights, how do you get to the globes in the back courtesy lights? (on the roof)

Im really after white parkers. I got those blue headlights, and with an yellowish globe it looks... well... stupid.

But less blue than yours.

those are white LED's lol. should have seen the blue LED's i had in there :

Narva do a park globe (5watt wedge) called "arctic blue" its a white globe. still has a little yellowish tinge. but it will, because its halogen. have them at any autobarn.

get a small flat head screwdriver, look at the housing, and there is a little area which looks big enough to fit the end of the screwdriver in, anyway put the screwdriver in that, and just sort of pop/pry it out. its pretty easy. just need to have a look.

Thought it would easy, just wasn't 100% sure and didn't want to break anything.

Thanks!

I replaced a parker a while ago in the wagon. What I expected to be an easy job turned out quite frustrating. The darn globe holder needed a lot of persuasion to come out.

Got it done in the end though. Just glad they don't need replacing often! LOL!

Can also get the chrome Narva indicators ... when off they are literally invisible ... but when on they are bright orange. I remember seeing them in Autobarn.

I wanna get the same LED parkers as Henri ... but looking at my headlights ... I think i have to pull the headlight to change the buggers (that's what you get for having custom headlights)

Not necessarily. I gave this a lot of thought when re-locating the parklights. Here's my tip, find a friend (muscular preferred), have him grab your ankles & turn you upside down (as if hanging from a balcony), then armed with a pair of long nose pliers..........nope you're right, better to remove the headlights to change the parker bulbs :

LMAO .... I had a good look at it .... and it looks like they are located just under the radiator support.

Thank goodness the globes are still working in there ... haven't had to replace one yet ... touch wood.
