    That link does not seem to work for me. Has the link changed or been updated? I have been messing with this forever. I have changed all my bulbs and now some work and some don't and some are brighter than others. Any ideas, or am I doing something wrong??? I think the new bulbs just aren't making good contact with the metal retainer/clip that sits in the blue socket. They were soldered to the original bulbs so I broke them off, pressed them back into the sockets, then pressed the new bulbs in. Everyone makes this sound so easy, but it is kicking my a$$. Anyone have any ideas???

    For anyone still messing with their DIC, I went Napa and they sell the correct bulb WITH the socket. Just twist out your blue socket and twist in the new one and you are good to go. This was nearly as cheap as messing with the bulbs, but I didn't have to worry about the new bulbs making connection and whatever. Just put it in and I was done. I would highly recommend this route for anyone with blown bulbs.
