ok guys..urgent help needed...one of my xenons blew. anyone know what type it is? where to get and rough price?

or shud i just drive to pml....looks like its not easy to change the bulbs on my own...
You can get Philips P2S at Waterloo. Cost is Approx 200.00 a pair. Very difficult to fit. Gotta remove bumper, etc. Some guy in the USA said not necessary but I really doubt it. If you don't mind paying and don't want to trouble yourself, then PML is the way to go.

OK, I am going to drive to Selangor tomorrow, I only have the address, but don't know where exactly is the place. Will try my Garmin and let you know how Garmin fares. Just updated to the MalSing v2.32.
What time are you going up? I am going up to KL tomorrow also but I will be very very early. First day of school holiday, I bet both crossings will be jam packed after 7am.

Garmin has 2 version of maps, 1, singapore and JB only. 2, Singapore and Malaysia map.
What he is trying to explain is, if you take up no.1, it will cost you 400 bucks to install Spore and Mal maps in the future when it is available. But if you pay in advance now, you get to use sin & JB and you pay nothing to upgrade to sin and mal maps when it is available.

Malsingmaps is a different story all together. This is the map that is created by GPS enthusiasts in singapore and malaysia. they update the map frequently and share info to everyone who needs it.
it includes speed traps, food joint (both singapore and malaysia) for example, if you are in the vicinity of East coast road and click on food, all the nearby stalls will appear. it includes the famous fishball noodle 328..bak cho mee...nasi padang...nasi lemak....roti prata and etc....go over to malaysia, you have BBQ sting ray..satay...and many more.

Both Maps can be used on the Garmin GPS.

Garmin maps can search by address, but malsingmaps is more generic, no address search.
Malsingmaps is very updated, like queensway flyover, or underpass, 3 days after the opening, the map is updated. My Mapking has to wait for 3 months!
Garmin updates, i am not sure how long is one update.

LMK,

Thanks for helping me to explain.

Wiring cost from what I understand is not expensive. Should be <$60. Anyway, you don't have to charge the C320 on the time. A full charge should last quite a few hours.

C320 is also preloaded with many favorite food joints. Wherever you are, you just have to key in they type of food you fancy (e.g chinese, american, italy, fast food..), the C320 will shows you a list of restaurant, food court nearest to present position. He choose your option and the rest you just follow the C320.

If your ride is thirsty for fuel. Just key in Fuel and C320 will shows all the nearest petrol pumps (caltex, shell, spc...etc).
