frostman83 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 After my reversing light upgrade to a 6000k bulb I'm after some sidelights. Car is a 59 plate 1.6 focus. Is this the mk2 facelift version? Bit confused here. Which bulbs should I go for ? eBay or Piaa bulbs. Any help would be super. Thanks.

frostman83 Posted February 23, 2013 Author Share Posted February 23, 2013 I thought the led ones were no good. ? They flicker and just burn out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGersFord Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Cheap fleebay LEDs do lol. If you're buying LED Bulbs always stick to branded ones ie Philips, Cree, Prism etc. Dont buy cheap LEDs from eBay you're lucky if they last a month before they burn out. The Philips ones ive sent you a link to are great. Im assuming your sidelights are w5w 501s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
