Thro` the group buy I`ve now fitted Xenons to my dipped and full beams....mighty impressive lights now.
but my sidelights and fog light look aweful.... really yellow <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
what are the recommendations for LED sidelight bulbs ie how many led`s per bulb 6, 8 ?
also can you get them to fit the fog lights (but still give enough light to work) or something else that will give white light.ta much <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

The more LEDS in the light cluster the brighter it obviously is..

Fog light.. not really, as LEDS are not bright enough!!

hi Paul,

does this mean that you bought two complete H1 kits ?

I am planning to buy a set of HIDs as well but can't decide
whether to do only the dipped/low beam or the full/high
beam together.

cheers.

Paul, I bought a set of the LED bulbs from halfrauds that are nice and white without being bluey. They have 4 LED's per bulb, not sure what they were called, but Matty pointed them out to me so i'm sure he would know.

As for HIDs in the full beam, I dont really feel the need to use full beam with my HID's in the dipped headlights. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Yup I've got the same as Matt's, but I can't remember who they are made by. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

As for HID's for main beam, I thought about this but I hardly use main beam now as the dipped is so good, however I can see why you did them Paul as when your main beam is on it does look dull. And I've got 100w bulbs in too, but the HID's are still miles better.

Another thing I thought of, if you flash someone during the day they will just flicker as they are cold... <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

yea I bought 2 sets <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />,but they are awesome on full beam <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

thanks for the links Nazo, I`ll get some LED`s for the sidelights.....and search for something `whiter`for the fog lights.
I know what you guys mean about not using full beam.it`s cr*p with the xenons on the dipped beam and also you get a really distinct (weird) pure white xenon light mixed with the `orrible old yellow lights.......so thought I had to try the whole set <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />,as regards to them having to heat up,other cars still appear to know when i`ve flashed them ,so not had a problem with that yet <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Yo Paul

Have a read of this :

btw: If you want detailed info on HID technology, speak to Janet from autolamps for more info, an undisputed expert in gas discharge bulbs.

Cheers Paul, I was wondering about that when your are flashing. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Shall I upgrade my main beam now.... <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Paul, i found the packaging mine came in today (as i was trying to find one of my original bulbs as one of the LED ones' had failed <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />), and they are made by Prism.

Of course, that little story might put you off wanting to buy those particular ones. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Failed?? Already. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Probably due to the condensation in the light cluster.
Was sitting outside my house hairdrying my car earlier to get rid of it. Bet that looked normal. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

The strange thing is I was doing the same today. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

I was replacing the mesh in my bumper due to it rusting like crazy after less than a year <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> and noticed a pool of water in my passenger lense. The holder for the fog light bulb was very loose, so I assume that was the problem.

Hi Just brought a HID kit was wondering if you have any pics of where u fitted the ballasts ?

No pics I'm afraid, but I just fitted them to the bottom of the light units.

Mine are fitted here .

As you can see i chose the blue insulating tape so that it would blend in subtley and look completely oe <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Blends in perfectly. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Has anyone got any suggestiongs for one for the rear numberplate lights at all? Ive done some re-wiring to the rear so anything that fits in the plastic will do but dont want anything too bright really, just crisp if thats clear <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
