Good afternoon all, just a quick question.

 

I'm a new driver (been driving for six months) and lately I've gotten really sick of this God-awful headlights. Has anyone got any ideas for how to neutralise/counter them from my 2013 Škoda Citigo Sport? 

 

In addition, can I fit LEDs to my car? I understand that HIDs require proprietary lenses, but if I could shove some serious normal LEDs on my car, that should do the trick?

 

Thanks all in advance.

Same situation with LEDs as HIDs, the headlamp unit must be Type Approved for LED bulbs.

Good news! Your 2013 CitiGo is, according to the Philips compatibility checker, type approved to use their H4 LED bulbs.
That said, you will need to double check yourself to make absolutely certain. I haven't checked the Osram site lately though.

IIRC from when I was looking last year, you'll need to download and print off a type approval certificate of conformity to keep in the glove box in case you get pulled over or for the MoT tester to check.

Thank you very much for the good news, I appreciate you taking the time and effort to check 👍
