Strutter Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Just had to replace the left main bulb again, this was replacing an Osram set and another quality pair before it (same headlight I might add), just put the stocks back in, out of touch with this a little but is their a good recommended set etc to look at these days? Was thining of replacing the side lights again as well, have cool white LED Bulbs, but you know, change is fun!. Also was thinking os some new blue footwell leds if anyone has any ideas about them as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strutter Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 Ahh right sorry didn't realise, they seem real pricy for LEds mind! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGersFord Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Halfords sell Prism w5w LEDs for about £10-15. They're fairly decent aswell. Like I said dont base your prices on the cheap crappy ones you get on eBay youre lucky if they last a month. Stick to the branded LEDs more expensive but you shouldn't need to change them again once fitted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b1g_dav3 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 :s I'd much rather risk the Fleabays than pay all that for SMD's >.< most are fine You can get CREE's for £10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGersFord Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 You can get the Philips ones cheaper aswel if you shop around and you can get 6000k ones also. Cree is a brand lol I was sick of the fleebay bulbs failing just an excuse for the police to pull you for a failed bulb if you dont notice. Cant argue that the Cree bulbs are or arent any better than the Philips ones or even the prism ones because I havent used the Cree but they always get good reviews and ive used both the Philips and the prism and both are great quality and look great too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1g_dav3 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 They're a lot brighter than standard SMD's, can't even stress how much until you try them, but as a guide, I can use them for reversing and they're a lot, lot brighter than the standard reverse bulbs, and those are what would be sat in the sidelights :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGersFord Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Its the same with the philips though ive got the philips in my reverse lights lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1g_dav3 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 In fairness I have HID's now lol, but they are stupidly bright; I have them in the fog's and they're brighter than standard somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
