Q: what bulbs?

I just brought a new ralliart, taking delivery this weekend

I just wanted to get some headlight bulbs for it.. does anybody know what the different bulb codes are? (headlight, turn signal, etc)?

Also the B&M shifter, is it needed since the shifts seems to be short enough stock.. any comments?

The stock bulbs are 9007, but you can find all the other numbers in the US Lancer Show and Shine Forum...

Hey guys, post where you bought them, and what the prices were like...

I walked into Performance Improvements in T.O. last week, and they tried to sell me a pair of PIAA 9007's for $150 bucks! I said
'forget that', and walked into Canadian Tire and spent $40 on a pair of lights, but they're not as blue as I'd hoped... I'm thinking of returning them.

Thanks!

The parking bulbs haven't been replaced yet but the bulbs I have for them are ultra white. the contrast with my blue head and fog lights should look great.

My headlights and foglights have both been replaced with hyperblue and look fantastic.

to be honest and to not rip on the board, Human nature is to branch off into other topics so the whole idea of something staying "on topic" is generally against our nature. Have you ever talked with a friend about something and stayed completely on topic for 3 hours...Im sure you may start with a car topic and get to cd players which goes in dash units...to tv's...to playstations to home stereos...by that point you are talking about something completely different. I am not trying to get smart but the nature of conversation unless you are a robot tends to drift so the whole idea of off topic conversation is natural and to stay completely on it is BS so relax..it happens! and for the Mods I am not trying to rip on the structure of the board but this is the only board I have ever seen where people actually get flustered over off topic conversation. You guys need to relax a little and realize that things don't always stay in the same topic...thats human nature.

Thanks and everyone should enjoy the board and talk about their car...thus what a car forum is for...not feel constrained about ...did I talk off topic?...that hinders free thought and makes it into a dictatorship...
