but seriously. what do they expect us to do, take it down to a dealership every time we need a bulb changed? we're not all housewives..



Before too long it will be a requirement ...

As cars become more and more dependant upon CAN line technology instead of using recogniseable wiring then any old bulb wont do the job...
A bulb out of a cheap shop up the town wont have the correct power drain and therefore the ECU's will detect a fault and put on an engine management light..
Getting a bulb from a dealership will come with free fitting...

Dont laugh.......Its going to happen sooner than you think..
