H15 Bulbs

Hi folks.

I am looking to upgrade the headlight bulbs in my Fiesta Zetec.

I am aware that both the headlight bulb and DRL's for my car is a H15 bulb and I am looking for the whitest bulbs around however they must be road legal!

I see a lot of people using HID kits, are these road legal? If so which kits are popular?

Does anybody recommend any H15 bulbs?

Does anybody know if changing the bulbs will disable the DRL's?

Thanks in advance.

    Your H15 bulbs are you DRL and main / full beam. There is only one upgrade option at the moment which isn't much cop. HIDs can only be fitted to your dipped beam (H7) but aren't legal.

    I just bought these as they are my DRLs and main beams, hardly use the main beams to be honest, just was fed up with the standard ZS yellow looking DRL. They look fantastic.

    Really happy with the result too. Will try get some photos up when I get home.

    H15 HID's are pointless, you get the high beam as the HID but the DRL is merely just a Christmas tree light. They're garbage.

    As promised here are the bulbs I mentioned earlier.

    How do they work for the high beams?

    Probably not very well ha ha ;)

    I'd imagine they wouldn't even function as the H15 is a dual filament bulb, and LED's don't like working as dual filaments :/

    Does anyone know if these bulbs can be flashed as full beams? Kind of pointless if not?
