Turn Signal Bulb Type

[lansador]

I've searched and searched and could not find the answer.

The right turn blinker on my 2002 E39 530i is shot. I checked Autozone, Pepboys, on-line (and I'm usually good at finding stuff on the net) but can't find the bulb.

Please direct me to an on-line site that sells these bulbs.

One other thing, this is the third bulb I'm replacing in the 5 months I've had the car (fogs, rear brake, now turn sig). Should I just replace all the external bulbs at once so that I don't have to go through this again and again? What have you guys done?

Thanks for your replies.

Once you get the part number, you can either buy it on that site or shop around.

And no, there is no need to replace them all all once except for your fog & headlights. Usually those are replaced in pairs. One more thing, get the German made OEM. I have heard you can have problems with other brands.

Excellent reply LOS. Just what I needed. And yes, only OEM!
