Bulb type?

Post by Smokegetsinyoureyes »

Tried to look this up in various bulb finder sites with no avail. My polo being April 2015 1.4Tdi bluemotion SEL with LED headlamps and daytime running lamps in the headlamp unit, probably similar to the GTI model. Anyway my fog lamps that double as cornering lamps and are on the inner side of the fog lamp (the earlier models daytime running lamps are in the outer side of this unit) what type of bulb is fitted and is it possible to get led bulbs to suit and if so what type? Bulb is in the inner side of the unit in the foto!Image

Thanks Lawrence, was actually looking at them earlier on ebay, the only reason I thought of changing them was I thought they looked odd with all the other lights being led, any fotos of yours?
Cheers, Neill.
