D4XNY Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 Done a search but nothing really came back Looking to replace my HID bulbs, its a 2004 so prefacelift model The 2 bulbs that seem to crop up are D2R and D2S bulbs Now are the D2R for models upto 2005 And D2S for the facelift, post 2005 models? Quote
Coppz Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 I have a 2003 and wanted a slight new look blue tint.. So I bought these: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... K:MEWNX:IT Dipped beam, single HiDs (pre-facelift) and cheap Very happy, fitted last night and didn't bleed doing it. I will post a how to for the bulb change as it's not the easiest car to bulb change if you've never done it! Hope that helps. Quote
D4XNY Posted August 11, 2011 Author Posted August 11, 2011 Thanks for the link, I bought some Photos would be really good thank you very much Quote
Coppz Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 I'll post one tomorrow for you, Not a true colour likeness but think you'll be happy with them! Quote
Coppz Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 The new one on left is bluer in reality and the old is whiter than that yellow.. But a distinct difference.. Save the car 2 or 3 years Quote
D4XNY Posted August 12, 2011 Author Posted August 12, 2011 Cool pic, were they easy to change once you take the wheel and arch liner off?? Quote
Coppz Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 Jack the car up, optional wheel take off then peel back the top of the liner and you can see the h/l back Quote
D4XNY Posted August 14, 2011 Author Posted August 14, 2011 Yeah I done this yesterday, put some 6000k ones in, the hardest part was removing the grey cover cap! Quote
Neilp Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 Yeah I done this yesterday, put some 6000k ones in, the hardest part was removing the grey cover cap! whats the light like at night? is the beam even ? I much prefer the whiter colour to be honest Quote
Coppz Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 The 8000k have a noticeably less light output, but I love the look. Beam pattern seems even! Quote
