Has anyone had to ever change......

[a91_formula]

the front indicator bulb on a 4th Gen Camaro.  If so can I ask where you got the bulb from?  I have replaced my front indicators to some nice new clear lenses but obviously now need amber bulbs.  They aren't the normal bayonet fittings and are called "wedged " fittings.

Thank you

Try http://www.carbulbs.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">www.carbulbs.com - from the people who brought you wiperblades.com, but for bulbs. If they don't have it they may be able to help you identify it.

Hundreds of them on ebay, of all different colours.

I bought some white ones to go behind the stock lenses, only to find they are too white and don't look right

Tip for any one thinking of doing similar - buy the bulb colour that matches the lense colour.


Back to wedge fittings, I'm not sure, but I think there are 2 sizes.  Once you've worked out which ones you need (check the owners or maintenance manual), you will find it a lot easier to find.

Also bear in mind that there are difference identifying codes for the same bulbs, which is why it's best to find out from the manual.

I think I have found some amber bulbs on ebay.co.uk and also some chrome amber ones on ebay.com     Just trying to decide which ones to go for

If they're the same as the 3rd gen side marker bulbs they are the exact same bulbs as used in the interior lights like the dash illumination.

Not the side marker bulbs - its the front indicator bulbs

Oh sorry, misread that then

I can consult my dealers 4th Gen electrical manual if you like ?

Just give me a few hours to wade through the 380 pages

I believe it's a 194 wedge bulb... They do LED ones here: http://www.m-99.co.uk/Car_Neon_LED_Lighting/Indicator_Light_LED_Bulbs/indicator_light_led_bulbs.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">http://www.m-99.co.uk/Car_Neon_LED_Lighting/Indicator_Light_LED_Bulbs/indicator_light_led_bulbs.html

Ah page 41 of 1,187 electrical pages

Yes it's a wedge fitting but the description isn't brilliant


Park & turn signal ( Chevrolet ) Trade Number = 3157K

No wattages on the circuit diagram on page 61

I did a very quick search - and I don't think they are the same as the 3rd gens ones are bayonet fittings - but thanks

They are about the size they appear on the screen (for me anyway)...

I have ordered two pairs so I got a spare set put aside

Looks as though he also does quite a bit of yanky stuff

Thanks for all your help ;)
