morrias Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Today I went in to replace burnt out headlight bulb #2 after a whopping 14,000 miles. THe dealer informed me that Subaru is now shipping different bulbs becuase of this issue that have a different resistor in them. The way to tell they are different is that the back of the base is blue instead of orange. My new bulb is Part Number 84920AG020 and is dated 11/01/05. I wonder if my last bulb I reaplace now too long ago has the old orange base now. Hopefuly these last longer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
