pep boys sucks for parts (the one in MI barely lasted a year before closing) but they should have them in stock like they said it's a 9005 a very common bulb (wal mart should even have it)

they prob have the bulb but im talking about the whole housing

archemedes 08-20-2005 08:50 PM

housing is a dealer item to get teh right one, napa can order one that may work, but they rarely fit

archemedes 08-20-2005 08:51 PM

that would be a collision part so normal stores won't deal with them usually

imported_2fast4u 08-20-2005 09:32 PM

well i got the low beam sylvania whole housing upgrade :rolleyes:

RFF 08-20-2005 09:56 PM

I didn't notice the year of your car I was thinking it was a newer one, you wanted a capsule not housing (housing is what holds the bulb, capsule is a conversion part to the new style bulbs)

imported_2fast4u 08-21-2005 09:29 PM

housing is the whole thing right? i mean its the sealed beam the glass with the bulb isnt it?

on your car the housing is the black plastic since yours is supposed to be sealed beam.
