I'm headed over to France shortly, and thanks to the need to carry spare bulbs, I thought I'd use it as an excuse to get some better performing / looking bulbs and use the existing ones as spares.

There was a brief thread elsewhere about the types of bulb, but does anyone have any comments suggestions about the following replacements:

Dipped Beam (H7):

Main Beam (H3):

Sidelights (501 LED):

Registration Plate (272 LED):

...and then just a set of bog-standard bulbs for the brake / indicators / fogs / reverse etc.

Thoughts?
 
check ebay you will find them for half the price. if you do use auto bulbs use discount code strathy.

I have HIDs dipped and Nightbreakers for main and i find its a great lighting set up!

I'm gonna stay clear of the HIDs for the minute (cost!), but I'll definitely give eBay a look. I just started on Autobulbs as it's easy to see what's available!

Am I looking at the right codes there though? e.g. H3, H7 etc.

HIDs are £35 off ebay! check out diana shop its where mine came from;)

yep H7 dip and H3 Main. also for your LED side lights you can get 10 for a tenner on ebay. MK4 ibiza do seem to eat LED bulbs. i have tried expensive ones and cheap ones and the cheap ones have lasted the longest!
