Morning folks

I've just taken my Beat for its MOT and it failed on something as trivial as a headlamp bulb, cos it was yellow, and the other was white. When i asked if they had a bulb i could buy, they took the yellow one out, and one guy said he'd never seen one that shape before. I'm inclined to believe him , cos i've never seen one with such a small flange on it either. It's a PIAA bulb, so i'm guessing it's either original or aftermarket from Japan. Obviously i need a white one to fit the car. Can i go to my local Honda stealer and order one, or is it a mail order item?

Regards

Marge

Thanks guys.

I'll hit the stealers as soon as i can then. Thanks for the compliment Midship. It did look good under those flouro lights in the MOT station, even if such compliments make me feel slightly awkward. Its just a shame we can't make it to the Kingsbury meet.

Thanks again

The sideskirts are Mugen items that came with the car. It's only been in England since 2003, so it must've arrived off the boat with them. I did wonder whether they were genuine, but i spotted Mugen logos moulded into the undersides when it was on the ramp during the MOT. I'm chuffed to bits with the car to be honest. Not sure how long i'll have it, but it's a beautiful little thing, and such a riot to drive.
