Cheers dude!

I was thinking about it, they are all standard bulbs at the moment. Not sure which to get or where to get them from!

How about yours, what are you running at the moment mate?

They are a nice little upgrade especially now winter is here again

I'm running these mate

Sidelights - http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/ultimate-501 ... -1677.html

Dipped Beam - http://www.hids4u.co.uk/d2s-bulbs-6000k ... -pair.html

I havent upgraded my full beams because they are already bright enough for my liking.
Its a cool upgrade though and they make a big difference for night driving

Not the best of pictures but this is what they look like (in the day)


Ben,

Cheers mate, ill order me some now I think. Will also upgrade the front fogs so it all matches

Good Stuff
H7's for the Fogs

If you go HID on the fogs youll need a full H7 kit remember!

Otherwise itll be H7 fitting LEDs off ebay

If I run HID H7 foglights that means I'll have to run another set of ballasts wont I? Is that a relatively easy procedure for the fogs?

Might just go with the LED's from ebay

Yes it means ballasts and wiring to be installed - to be fair, id just go with LEDs as you never use fogs anyway, plus HID fogs would cause huge amounts of glare!

Agreed
I just went for the good old "Xenon style" fogs off ebay and they still look alright

Ok, winters officially here and I hate it so I decided to get some of my winter mods underway.

New headlamp protectors, to protect against stones, grit etc (thanks Emma )



Got some new sidelights too, will get these on as soon as the weather picks up



Also purchased some new H7 xenon look fogs which I managed to fit last week, vast improvement from the factory bulbs. Will get pics up when the weather is better

Waiting for a few other things when Mr Posty decided to get his act into gear

Got my Headlight protectors delivered last week too
I was shocked when I read "Made In Australia" though, the Aussies make next to nothing

Nice update though dude

cheers mate.

haha I know I was quite surprised when I saw that too Just need to get them on now as soon as the weather gets better....

Few picss of the H7 bulbs I upgraded to...slightly dodgy phone pic but I am impressed with them, nice slight blue tint.





Just need to get around to changing the sidelights when the weather is decent. I hate doing this on these, there such a bugger to do even without taking the bumper off Plan is to get them on tomorrow if its dry. Now also thinking of upgrading the xenons to perhaps some 6000k bulbs to tie it all together up front.

Washed it (again ) on Monday, once the last of the snow cleared, it was filthy with road salt. Came up well considering it was nothing fancy, just a quick snow foam and then a wash

Looking Good Dude

i'll keep you posted on the BMC as promised

Cheers mate.

Yeah no problem, drop us a PM when your ready

The fogs look cool.
