Bulbs Replacing Bulbs

scol78 · 24th March 2007, 19:11

I am just going through the process of changing my bulbs to try and give an all round white look to match the HIDS.Side lights are 501 Extreme Whites ,nice and white .I bought Osram Silver Stars which are still yellow for the main beam.H11 Extreme White for the fogs and they are still yellow.Could anyone recomend me some nice white H1 & H11.
I am also thinking of upgrading the rear lights to LEDS but no one seems to know the fitment.Its basically a larger capless version of the front pushin side lights but whats the fitment ?

What makes it worst is i had to strip down the front end to change the fog light bulbs

Can I just ask if you can replace the bulbs without having to take anything apart? ie unbolt headlight, remove bumper etc?

You just have to pop the bonnet and change them?

This must seem like a very silly question

Main Beam and Side Lights are easy to do nothing to remove,but foglights .I dont know whether its because i have an Image front end or what but i had to strip down the front end of my car to change these.

Excellent news. This may be one of the first things I ask when I look at a new car from now on.

I think the fog lights are accessed by releasing the protective wheelarch liner.

Yes done that but youll find that one light is in front of a huge washer water tank
