Nice I run leds also

These 5W5 leds have some sort of adjustment? The H4 have a left or right turn option to make the beam straight, those small bulbs have or they fit in one position and that's it?

Ι think their beam is too hi,no matter if it's in the 1st scale they blind a bit anyone who looks straight to the car.

Bulbs changed, Led 2,5W at 5500K

To me the 5500K cool white/blueish bulbs don't look right in older cars and can be more harsh on the eyes at night, I prefer the 3000K warm white/classis/yellowish.

W5W bulbs from my preferred LED bulb supplier come up in a range of whites, and yellow, green and red too, would have been T10 in old money (tubular 10mm wide) which you could get in an extra bright 200 lumens LED bulb if you wanted to test your VWŠkoda bulb holders, hopefully they would be better quality than the 2015 ones.

Tell me that this is cell phone’s camera blurriness and not the real effect of those bulbs (and what the other drivers see).

Ah, typical poor reflector behavior, actually, you see a textbook example of a parabolic mirror blocking plate support difraction spikes, an ideal example of that. I am amazed

I will try to find a dark area to take a photo to see the patern of those 5W5 bulbs.

Gentlemen, let's move here

because this topic is for Skodians which faced ''surprises'' in their Engine bay. I need your opinion in the new topic.
