Hi All,

Want to upgrade my numberplate bulbs and sidelight bulbs. I want a bright white light from both, and the sidelights to match some 6k HIDS.

I've found the following:

Sidelight Bulbs:

Out of the above, these look likely to be the brightest:

But I'm worried about the following statement:

Plastic body- not to be used close to a heat source i.e. headlight

Regards to number plate bulbs, the options are:

Has anyone used any of the above, if so what are they like? Photos would be fantastic

Thanks

George

My Mrs took the Cupra to work this AM and I took the kids to school on the bus. Got soaked in a similar downpour halfway between two dry places

At least she normally parks at the top of a hill so the car should be ok.

Its all cleared now thank god! ive never seen it rain so hard!

So as promised - here we go 1st pic is a close up - dosent look like much light despersion from the side light buts just the bad iphone camera! - Also my HID's are 6k and were still warming up when i took the pic so they look a bit blue

And this pic is a bit further back and the light kinda shows better in this one - also my HID's were warmed up by now!
