Which side light bulbs ?

Just replaced the headlight bulbs from the Halfords Extremes which didn't last very long Rolling Eyes to the Osram Night-breakers which are a HUGE difference and very pleased with them Very Happy

Looking to upgrade the side lights to give a brighter look but would appreciate any feed back on the ones any of you guys have used Thumbs Up

Oh , I did see a pair for around £40 from another post but not wishing to spend that sort of money for side light bulbs Shocked

Thumbs Up

Some of the guys have gone for LED side light bulbs and these look good, a much whiter light. I am interested in changing mine for those. Anyone suggest where these can be sourced? I assume they are legal?

I've been running these LED's inside and out for 6 months. Only problem has been that the first batch bought were a PITA quality wise. Bulbs were fine, but the connections were carp resulting in flickering - I'm sure it was just the batch - the 2nd set I ordered were fine.

Make sure that you're happy with the colour though, there's a fine line between chav blue washer jets and these leds. I think they're on the right side, but it is a fine line.

Cheap, easy upgrade though at about £30 for the lot Thumbs Up

Is this the main cabin lights, the footwell, puddle lamps or are all interior bulbs 501? (never even looked at handbook) Very Happy
