    Good Morning TW! FNG here hoping to use yall's knowledge and helping me to identify the bulbs that i need to order.

    Background: I bought a 2005 Tacoma Sport from a dealership a few years ago and the previous owner had done a good amount work into it. My headlight went out yesterday and i figured no big deal simple plug and replace right? lol Wrong....'

    I pulled the bulb out of the headlight housing and this is what i saw.
    [​IMG] (hopefully that works, if not i have attached it below)

    The bulb does not simply come out and instead is fully connected to the wiring down below.
    I have went to the local auto shop stores and they were not very helpful.

    So if someone could please tell me what kind of bulbs that I am looking at i would greatly appreciate it.
    I have also attached a picture of the headlight itself if that helps.

    Thanks, Burrito

    Update, i was able to get a replacement bulb from an offline friend. We replaced it with an H1 6500K bulb. Everything works fine now, Thank you both for the help.
