Side Light Bulbs

Featured Replies

Hi all,

Just a quick question, I want to change my sidelights to match my bulbs that I have used to replace the factory dippee lights and the owners manual states that the sidelights output 5watts of power each

The ones I have seen are 12volts each and I was wondering would these be okay to use to replace the factory ones as most bulbs are measured in volts not watts, as I don't want to melt the wiring loom

All help is appreciated

Thank you

All cars work off 12 volts so the bulbs will all be 12v even standard.

What have you replaced your dipped beam with ? Then I can recommend some sidelights according

Agree with Nathan,,, got them bulbs in mine, and they are the brightest, most white sidelight bulb you'll ever come across.

And I'm pretty sure your car doesn't use canbus.

Doesn't matter if it's canbus the bulb or not, your car isn't canbus so it's irrelevant. Just get the ones linked and as above there the best you can get that I know of :) hope that helps

LEDs generally consume a lot less power so you'll never have to worry about that...
