Ok, are they road legal, and if not. would LED side lights be ok to have? If so can anyone recommend me some bright sideligts? preferable around 5000/6000k. i just had to replace my dipped beams with some 4 quid sheepOs as they blew on my way to work recently.

If your asking what I think you are, then yes, LED dipped beam are a totally illegal.

Sidelights are fine though.

I have LED Sidelight bulbs and I think they look fantastic, make a massive change and go brilliantly with HIDS

Done your interior light too? Looks alot better when unlocking your car at night and it fits well with the led sidelights. ;)

Well there is the whole not legal thing so if they caused an accident you may find you don't have any insurance...

interior boot light? I've done the reg plates

I haven't done the interior boot light coz I think I'm gonna do an led strips instead, haven't thought where to mount it though, maybe one either side of the boot

i gone for just a border line blue/white standard bulb but they are legal thank god... not the worlds biggest fan of LED sides, think they look a bit like the kid in a corsa thing to do... however i would say, that the blue tint bulbs do look the part!! my fogs are brill, and the main/dipped are good, just not sure HID Kit would go all too well on a fiesta, after all it does my !Removed! in when i see them retro fitted

does anyone know what type of led bulb is req'd for front fogs? Are they legal also? I fitted xenon canbus free led sides and put them on my rear plates as well. They look rather good i think. May do the boot and footwell.lights too but will leave the interior lights as then it wouldnt be able to dim? My lamps are not xenon. But for the dipped beams i went for the bluevision type and look pretty white. Anyone done the tail lights and/or brake lights with led?
