what type of light bulb is in the glovebox?
How do I get it out? Does it pull strait out or do I twist?
Can I get a replacement for it in blue?

Thanks,

I'm not sure how you get the bulb out but I know how to make it blue. If there is no direct replcement then you can buy a can of high heat blue paint. I have painted many bulbs with this and it works really well. If you use paint then the color comes out more blue then it would if you bought a blue bulb. Just make sure you only use one coat because if you use more than the bulb will become dim.

Lowering springs, custom grille, soon to be custom painted and have the whole engine rebuilt for big shot NOS and custom SC and tranny converted to 5-speed.

the glove box uses the same bulb as the doors and trunk light. you just have to pull it out. i've tried but i can't get my fingers in there far enough to get a good grip on it. that's what happens when you buy a japanese car....

Try to use some needle nose plyers if you cant pull it out with your hand. Use a paper towel or something on the plyers so you dont breal the bulb. If you still cant get it out then take out the glove compartment. Its no problem to take out. Just a couple of screws.
