gforce Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 The Owners handbook says H8 too. I'll just suck it and see i suppose. Pretty sure the pre-facelift takes H8, facelift takes the H11s. Interested to see/hear the results of these myself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoney871 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 No, they're definitely white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 No, they're definitely white. They look excellent mate big improvement over stock or any other bulbs on the market IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I'm tempted to get some in action video in the morning before it gets light. A quick spin down the local A road with the camera rolling so you can hopefully see the main beam coverage on road signs and cats eyes. Watch this space.

.Ryan Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Will wait for this! I need new bulbs as mine don't throw the light far enough (MTEC Cosmos Blue). The Osrams have been suggested but keeping my eyes out for allsorts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Osrams have been suggested but keeping my eyes out for allsorts. I'd recommend the osrams mate, they what I got in mine. Ain't let me down on the narrow winding unlit country roads so they good enough for me. But yes Clive do get a video up if you can do one mate.

Brigante Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I'll second that mate, after driving on unlit roads with the stock headlights in I quickly replaced em with the osrams lol. They ain't let me down yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
