ldraper14 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Need peoples opinions on best bulbs to get for my headlights, side and fog light. Was looking at Osram night breakers what's people opinion ? Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ed12 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Ran Night breakers in all of my cars, one set was in the car a year and a half and still working when it was sold - Did 30k in it with well over half at night driving. (It appears I must have the only sets in the world that last as everyone else will say they last 5 minutes). Heard good things about Philips ones, but never tried them myself!

ldraper14 Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 I might get the Osram night breakers then mate they seem pretty decent where do you get yours from mate ? Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ed12 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Got mine from eBay. £14 for H7 and £11.50 for H1. Just searched Night Breaker Unlimited and bought the cheapest from a company (so I could potentially return should I start getting these ones that die soon everyone talks of ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldraper14 Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 Can you have the night breakers in your fog lights aswell ? I wanted to change my reading lamp bulb to red or something aswell mate. Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ed12 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Not sure about Fogs, the police are hot on them around here so I've never bothered! Did mine to red to match the back lighting - which looked sick let me add! The trouble with red is it's a pain to actually see anything! So had to go back to white. Don't forget to do your foot well lights too :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldraper14 Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 Yeah I was looking at doing the footwell but I'm not really a dab hand at car electrics so might have to get that done by someone that knows what there doing, what do I buy for that ?

ed12 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 You should already have the bulb holders in there, you just plug in the bulbs :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldraper14 Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 Going to sound really daft here mate but bulb holders where will these be ? Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ed12 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 For the foot well lights? You should have a bulb holder at the top of each foot well, so just look up with a torch and you should see them hiding there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldraper14 Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 Oh right I will have to have a look tomorrow, what sort if bulb do I use for it ? Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ldraper14 Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 Are the bulbs easy to change on the fiestas ? Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ed12 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I took the headlights out when doing mine, only a few bolts. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldraper14 Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 Is that the easiest way to do it, going to order them now hopefully I will order the right ones ha Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldraper14 Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 Also what bulbs do you use for your side lights ? Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldraper14 Posted December 15, 2014 Author Share Posted December 15, 2014 Just had a look for the bulb holder in my footwell couldn't see it this is all I could see Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil 87 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 When the interior lights are on you should be able to find the footwell lights easily. As for side lights, some H7 bulbs come with side light bulbs to match i.e. same light colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldraper14 Posted December 15, 2014 Author Share Posted December 15, 2014 When I have my interior lights on the light that's on his the reading light and that's it mate. Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil 87 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 You're right, maybe the footwell lights only come on when you open the doors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldraper14 Posted December 15, 2014 Author Share Posted December 15, 2014 I'll have to go have a look now I must be really stupid if I can't see them ha Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldraper14 Posted December 15, 2014 Author Share Posted December 15, 2014 Just had a look had doors open and there was no light on other then the reading light. Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil 87 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 That's strange, I assumed all Fiestas have footwell lights unless yours were removed or aren't working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
