yeh i bought some, 99p plus P&P - just waiting on them to arrive, first set got lost in the post, 2nd set on the way - i'll get some pics up when i get them.
I've got some normal filament ones in mine that are over 2x brighter than stock, and slightly whiter - but not the usual LED bright white/blue colour.
I use 'em in the boot light and interior lights too so you can actually bloody see something when rummaging around in the boot at night.

Moonstone2.0 Wrote:f*cking rant: why the hell do we have conform with laws like have only one type of colour for our sidelights when I get distracted and nearly crash cause bloody trucks are allowed as many blue leds all over the front of their cabs as they want. i see blue lights in my mirrors all the time lately and its driving me f*cking mad, surely light laws are the same for cars and trucks. mental...bloody mental...I agree that blue should only be for emergancy services, makes it easy, you see blue lights you make sure your not in the way. now i glance in my mirror and see blue lights and i have to double check if its a bloody police car or just a truck!!
this... trucks with blue leds caught my eyes 5 times on the way to liverpool tonight :/ like one had a f*cking taj mahal in leds on the front!

Forgive me for being an idiot, but what sort of bulbs are the sidelights?
501's/ W5W's, T10 fitting.
Hmm, might pop to my local motor factor's on Saturday then.
Well I know what bulbs not to get anyway.
I bought some Bosch Pure Light bulbs from Hellfrauds earlier. What a load of shite. They're exactly the same! They shall be getting returned.
I ordered some halogen bulbs off ebay yesterday for £1.99 with free postage.
I had a look in the motor factors and all they had were LED things that were £4 EACH!
Should have said, would have got you a pair of these uprated ones.
Ripp I really need some better headlights/sidelights. Got a 94 zx but pretty sure they share the same lights.
Any chance you could grab some for me please and i'll cover you?
Thanks
In the end bought some LED sidelights, come out amazing.

there you go, but be warned, it did take a while for these to arrive - recommend opting for recorded delivery IF possible.
they fit on my phase 1, dont know what lights phase 2 and 3's have, maybe the same?
Yes ph2/3 sidelight bulbs are the same, they're the same type as what i posted, just has more diodes
Cool cheers shall order some soonish :-)
