Some might say it's because the Fabia vRS is not fully CANBUS though ..........

Wondering if there are any ultra white standard filament bulbs out there that will not give any problems, but still show a white light rather than yellow -- the standard bulbs stand out like a sore thumb against xenons.

Yes, pop a pair of Philips Bluevision 501 bulbs in, despite their name and the blue coating on them they produce a brilliant bright white light.

(BTW I have not used the above seller, it's purely a link to show the bulbs.)

i use piaa bulbs realy nice light and good life span
