headlight bulb vrs 1

Featured Replies

Guys, what size are the headlight bulbs on mk1 vRS octy please?

 

I wanna order some super whites, but getting confused which to buy.. some place say h4 others say h1!

 

I want to change both headlights and sidelight from yellow to super white.

 

Thanks guys 

Headlights are definately H4, fogs are H3 and side lights are W5W.

 

I recently got a pack of Osram Nightbreakers (H4) - well recommended. The difference in colour of light and length of beam is like night and day vs the original bulbs.

They are definately H4 tho.

I simply want to upgrade the candles in jam jars that are the standard bulbs plus get rid of that horrible yellowy light 

I got halfords extreme brilliance. Very good if a little expensive. £20 for two

Thanks mate.. I will be doing mine asap :-)

Philips Extreme or Osram Nightbreaker

H4 bulbs mate but if your gonna pay £20 for bulbs I got a set of HIDs off eBay for £25 delivered.

Give a great white light and a clear beam pattern on the mot test the other day.

H4 Osram Nightbreakers. I know the Philips Xtreme Vision ones were getting good reviews, but they 50% more expensive(when i got mine last year)

and i think they failed alot quicker than the Osrams.

Mahooosive improvment on standards though - I do a lot of night work, so dark o clock drivin is a regular....

did they come with the levelling thingys? or are they on manual adjustment?

No manual adjustment via the headlight motors.

Cool....

 

Has anyone used MTech Bulbs? seen them mentioned over on the Citigo forums (Hanging out there a bit too since swmbo's little Skoda came along)

and they are listed on HID direct webpage - cheaper than the Osrams, but claim roughly the same performance??

Halfords extreme brilliance. ^^

Cars parked front down facing down so its not a great picture

Would NOT recommend MTECs. Worse than the originals TBH.

Yep, thats what im running the last 12months, great output, compared to standards its like having football pitch flood lights out the front!

 

Another vote for the Osrams - and cheap from the bay at 15 quid.

 

Been running these since I bought the car - so yeah, now I think about it, they're nearly 4 years old! Not bad for the money - 4 years and no failure, with great illumination.

Cheers Tunk, I was dubious about them tbh, but felt i had to check in with a bit of past experience
