Thinking of switching to LEDs or other brighter globe.
Has anyone had any success?
Can someone advise on what type of globe is used in Bravo, are they H7? Thanks
 
If they're not as bright as you'd like, clean the lenses and put new halogens in- Osram nightbreakers if you want a slightly brighter bulb.



Don't convert it to LEDs, don't put aftermarket HIDs on it, or any other non-OEM solution.



You might be able to see more, but those of us unfortunate enough to be in front of you, or coming toward you, can't see ****, because the light from your car will be scattering all around. Including into our faces.

Even if you have projector lenes dosnt mean you can't be blinding on comming driver's they don't guarantee the correct beam Patten

I get what u mean but personally for me I've never had a problem this is my 3rd car with hids and led lights
 
You wouldn't have a problem, you're the one behind the wheel!

Passing an MoT means zip, they do not test brightness, and the beam pattern test is basic.

All it takes is you to stick a wheel in a hole/rut or go over a bump, and your "improved" headlights can reduce the effectiveness of the vision of a driver coming the other way.

If you can't see at night with the regular OEM halogens, get your eyes tested. The lights on the Bravo are pretty good as is - there is no need to modify them.
 
Reflective mirror in lens-type-headlight is more matte, in front of bulb is cut-off plate that blocks half of light, then light passes through fat glass-lens, then passes through one more glass/polycarbonate.


In "normal" headlight without lens, there is no blocks in front of reflective screen (screen is more mirror-ish) , light passes only through one glass
