im looking to get new bulbs/LED'S, for sidelights and main beams, i was just wanting to know what people recommended.
Yeah, they're brilliant white, make a huge difference and the flare in the pics is just the dodgy camera, the beam pattern is perfect.
Unlike HID's they didn't cost hundreds and I didn't have to buy new projector style headlights.
i havent got projector headlights and mine are very bright
You do realise you can't fit HID's to the standard GP headlights, not only is it an MOT fail due to the beam pattern screwing up (therefore illegal) but its a nuisance to other road users as your just dazzling them.
Just because they look bright doesn't mean they're good.
i realise the legal bit but my local fiat garage said they would sort the beam for me and then as long as everything else is ok at mot time they will pass it
Yes , and the lenses had just been polished up with some Super Resin Polish and High Gloss Protection.They are just halfords own?
I use Halfords own brand 90% excellence bulbs, some cheap crappy white £1.99 to take the yellow out and also use silver indicator bulbs that flash yellow.
What do you mean some cheap crappy white 1.99?
I've got the 90% ones but dont look like that on side lights

The 90% brilliance bulbs are main / dipped beam, they have no effect on your sidelights, they're a different bulb.
The sidelight bulbs are yellow as standard, the halfords headlight bulbs are white so I just brought some cheap white bulbs off eBay to take the yellow colour out of the beam.
