Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

i have a 2001 c2 with a retrofitted xenon light system installed by previous owner. The bulb has blown. Despite my best efforts, i cannot get the photo of it to attach, so I will have to try to describe it. Clear glass bulb with a blue filiment outside the glass and parallel to it. Issue is that the bulb is attached to a whip with one red wire and a female plastic connection, and a black wire with a male connection. Any ideas of where I can buy one of these? I can e-mail the photo to you. [email removed] regards, Keith
