'05 TL Bad Blub?

I left my class earlier and I noticed that my passenger light was looking red so I got out and saw this.



I did a little searching and I'm assuming that it's just a bad bulb. Can anyone verify this for me?

yeah that's right. it's a sign of the HID bulb dying. do some searching on here for reasonably priced quality replacement options.

www.theretrofitsource.com sells a bulb that is low in cost and great output! it's called the morimoto bulb.

dreaded pink eye. It's not necessarily contagious but you might consider doing the other side at the same time (if you are the original owner and know it to be original to the car)

Thanks for the site. I think I found a local shop that carries them. I hope they have the item I need.

Haha. I didn't think of it as pink eye. Yeah I'll change out both just to keep things even on both sides.



Thanks everyone for the input. I really appreciate it.
