Yeah 501 are the sidelights type, so 501's will work as sidelights and just plug stright in.
Are different colour sidelight bulbs legal? even if you dont use them apart from shows, meaning that you just use the headlights?
most of the led ones (other than white) will say for show or off road use only, as some cops may overlook it, others may pull you for it (or use it as an excuse to have a look at your insurance docs etc)D4NS said:
oh and they're always on with the headlights too (unless you remove the fuse
)
If i remove the fuse will i have to swap them over to originals for the MOT?
im pretty sure mot requires sidelights (as parking lights depend on the sidelights having a fuse and well working ) so will have to be swapped to originals for mot time

Just wondering. I have a 'tolerant' MOT'er anyway.
what dose the dip/dim fuse accualy do for us not in the know???
when you have your lights on the first notch, it has the sidelight bulb lit up, and the dip light is on but dimmer than normal, the dip/dim fuse is the one for the dimmed circuit so that when you have it on the first notch only the sidelights are switched on

Dan the MOT'er that you use, is it a Bournemouth one if so tell me next week when I see you as the ex G/F's car needs MOT'd in Jan & the friendly place I used to take it to, has moved to Winton somewhere to bigger premises (can't really be arsed to find out where) & she needs someone to be aware that her 106 Rallye has no cat due to the full group N Peugeot Sport exhaust that is on it, even tho when you put it on the gas analyser it still comes up clean it is ment to have one
Do these LED sidelight bulbs not melt when used too near the main headlight bulb? As mentioned in another thread.

thats mine with white LEDs and the dim disabled. to kill the dim/dip look at the fuse box, left hand side theres a relay and a 7.5A fuse. Pull the 7.5A fuse, thats it.
PhatAshKi - what bulbs do you have (main lights, not sidelights). Make sure u post pics when u have the white with blue tint sidelights (i nearly got some of them, but opted for pure white)

Hes someone at my work that would do it in his lunchtime. Hes very unlikely to 'help' anyone he doesnt know as he is a chief mechanic and would lose his job if he did 'miss' something that should have failed the car. Sorry m8. wish i could help.
D4NS- Soon he will have no way around it as it's all computerised at by 2006(iirc) they want to set up webcams to watch MOT'ers if they want to!

yes, as long as the head of the bulb isnt too big. go measure the sidelight hole, some of the leds are around 15mm wide. which fit i think, but best to check
After seeing this thread I remembered I had some blue sidelight bulbs (not led's) that I took out b4 my MOT.
I had a popped headlight and needed to change that so popped my blue sidelights in whilst I was there, Nowhere near as good as the led's but a nice effect all the same. Absolute bargain at £1.50

Bought mine the other night. Got some Red ones to see what they look like and some super bright blue ones if they look crap! Will post some picswhen i get em in. Has anyone got a pic at hand of which fuse you have to take out of simple instructions of where it is?
Any help appreciated.
