Mole,

sidelights are the those placed with main? Or are those placed on side repeaters?

btw, dipped are "low beam", main are "high beam" ??

Sorry bother you, but we have language issues here...

Sidelights = Parking lights
Dipped lights = Low Beam
Main Beam = High Beam

We will have to learn Portugese!

Thanks Bertj.

In every language we have many ways to express ideas. The culture here in Brazil is more afected by the United States than UK (movies, fast foods, tv series, etc), so we have to bother U for a better compreension... altough the English I´ve learned in school was the britsh one.

I've been thinking about Phillips blue vision dipped and full beam lights for a while now. How much are they and where can I get them from?

You want to look at Speeding.co.uk and look at the Quad LED side lights.

I bought a pair for my beeza cupra and was so impressed i bought them for the Polo GTI Xenon and these bulbs really look good.

Buy the WHITE as they have less blue in them and wont attract to much attention by the rossers...

Check out this post from CupraNet http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthr ... =LED+quads

Anyone got a night time shot to show me where these LED lights would be on the Polo? Haven't really thought about lights as a change...

Is it really worth it?

Out of interest has anyone got the blue vision headlights fitted?? Or does anyone know whether it's really worth doing? Do you notice any difference?

i have the blue visions on my octavia the difference i have found is a better spread of light but no real distance increase. They dont look blue when on more white next time i would pay less and buy the vision plus.
What about the phillips rallye bulbs ok they are illegal but if they are fitted in the high beam who would notice? I have them in my fogs and they are amazing with a good 1.5 to 2 mile range :D
