Mate I only know about the mirror light. It is a 194/W5W. To change it you need to adjust the mirror towards the car. Turn it to the extreme. You need a torch to see the light which is of a shape of a stopper, grey in colour, with a set of wire sticking out. Twist it counterclockwise and the light bulb will come. Change it and put it back.

Warning: Make sure you secure the bulb when you push it in. Coz if it gone loose and drops into the mirror (esp where it suppose to sit), you will spend the next hour "fishing" it out.

The picture says it all:

1. Get a torch.
2. Turn the mirror as so.
3. Torch the gap in between and look for the grey stopper.
4. Turn anticlockwise and pull
5. Change light bulb (194/ W5W)
6. Put back in reverse order.

Takahashi is the name I get from the family I spent time with in japan. They said I like to eat chicken so I am a "Tori" :p It just happen Ryosuke is also a Takahashi. But Takahashi is such a common name
