I'm ordering a set of side markers. I have read I need, or I should get, the red bulbs.

Which red bulbs do I need?:

12 Volt 21 / 5 Watts Double Filament Large Push-in Light Bulb
OR
12 Volt 21 / 5 Watts Single Filament Large Push-in Light Bulb


Better yet, which of these stock numbers do I need from autodynamix.com: http://www.autodynamic.com/colored_bulbs.htm

BTW: What is the "manual" being referred to when replacing the side markers?

Thanks!

They are wedge bulbs... small, not big. The package was in Japanses, so I couldn't tell you what to get.

The "manual" is your owner's manual. It comes with the car.

When I changed mine I looked at the stock bulb and it was a 194 bulb. So, I got the OptiBlue 194/168 red bulbs. Hope this helps.

Peace...

Yes, I just replaced mine. I got red 194 bulbs at a local auto part store. Also bought the orange ones anticipating those front clears one of these days.

Oh, yeah, I do have an owner's manual. Will a manual come with the bulbs too?

Thanks for information on the bulbs (and the manual). I placed an order for the markers and the bulbs!

Read the (Nissan Maxima 2000) owners manual - it tells you how to remove them (page 8-29 I think). I just did mine last week, the harness twists out 1/4 turn and the bulb just slides out. Be careful so you don't mess up your nice car or break the old markers on the way out!
