Optra5 / Reno fog lamp bulbs???

Post by ChiPPy »

I've been trying to find out for the longest time, but have had no luck. Does anyone know what the stock bulbs are for the fog lamps in the Optra5 / Reno? All of the bulb listings I've found do not list a bulb for the fogs, and I've not found any joy in the forums either. Does anyone have any specs on the fog bulbs? Anyone?

Thanks

Hahah. Yeah the dealer couldn't even tell me.

It's 893, which is equal to some other popular bulb that I don't remember.

Thanks for the reply Kinky.

I actually got around to taking the bulb out today, and it's was actually an 880 made by GE. I went over to gelighting.com and it's not listed at all. I work at a MACK truck dealership, so I thought I would cross reference it with the Mack data base, and it was listed, but it was special order only, meaning they don't sell them often enough to keep large stocks. I looked up the specs of the bulb, and the closest mechanical equivalent I could find was the 893 like you listed, (the difference was the 880 being 27watts, and the 893 being 37.5watts.) So I guess that's why the dealers don't know either..... the bulb the Reno and Optra5 ships with doesn't seem to be available/exist.
