Halfords have White led replacements for the sidelights. There are 4 LEDs in each bulb.

They look like this (not a great pic I know)

They match the dipped HID's perfectly.

Don't suppose you've got a part number or something as I can't seem to find them.

I found halfords white leds were very blue next to the hids.

I recently replaced them with some from a web site, auto bulbs direct mentioned in a recent post, these are much better.

Heres the link.

Yeah those bulbs from consumabulbs are as white as the HIDs. I bought bulbs previously and they had a blue tinge to them which looked silly.

also depends on the colour temp of the hid.

I think temp is the correct term.
