Grumpy Posted November 11, 2018 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 The bulbs in my side lights are currently standard and as we all know are underwhelming. Anyone got any recommendations for bulbs which when lit look very similar to the dipped beam xenons. Also, what is the fitment please.

CLAYTONJONES Posted November 11, 2018 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 They are 501, i’ve tried so many different Cree LED bulbs and its hard yo get a good match. Depends on what Xenons bulbs you have as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Posted November 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 Thanks for the response. The Xenons are the factory ones and to be fair when they are lit they have a nice crisp white appearance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LR5V Posted November 11, 2018 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 Halfords do capsule bulbs that are more white than yellow, I have them and they do go better with factory xenons - 501 W5W 3500K Whiter Car Bulb Halfords Advanced Twin Pack I seem to recall trying some ebay LED ones, they claimed they were specifically for Lupo Gti, but had a head wider than the bulb body, they would not fit the opening into the light reflector... so it turned out not suitable for Gti at all!

Grumpy Posted November 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 Those Halfords ones look just the ticket. Cheers😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
