My sidelights are now blue....

My £4 bulbs (blue sidelight/parking lights) from ebay turned up today, so I put them in and they work as described. They are a nice white/blue colour and match the HIDS; the old ones look a lot more yellow when I had both side by side. The Computer likes them as it shows no codes; physically they look the same as the standard ones but are blue instead of clear. I will have to wait for darkness before I can see what they are really like, but it looks good to me.

Here is trhe link to the blue/white bulbs:

Here are some daylight pics:
The 1st one shows new bulb on the left, with old yellow bulb on the right
The 2nd is a closeup of the new bulb
The 3rd shows the empty packet

I am well pleased so far & will try to take some pics tonight after dark

If you are looking for a good white light Halogen main beam bulb, In my Corrado I've just replaced my Phillips extreme 80% more light, with some half price Halfords 90% more light bulbs and whilst they are not much brighter, they are a very white blue light that matches HID dipped beams, highly recoomended.
