Just installed my 10K xenon bulbs, from Teddy and wow what a difference :D compared to the standard ones (left hand side if you hadn't noticed).

Good job I have already ordered the mainbeam upgrade to 8K as well. The standard ones look amber in comparison.

10k??? GADZOOKS!!!!! Take a drive on a dark unlit road at night, you'll be surprised how much your new bulbs do NOT light up the road. I upgraded to 8000k H7 bulbs, I can't see shit! They look absolutely pimp though :D

yer, i agree too.
10k is too blue.
when i first installed my 6k bulbs i thought it was just about the right colour.
but sometimes i still think it's just tiny bit purple/blue.
i hadn't had a chance to look at it from a different angle.
e.g. Get someone else to drive my car and follow behind me at night.

Estoril Sport, in the last picture you have your "city lights" on, why not take them out of the unit, and seal the back. Most of the crew have done this, that way your halo's become replacement's for these. It gets rid of that yellow/orange tint in the lens.

PS Xenon's look nice!

yes dugesh
but make sure it's put back when MOT is due, becos the guys failed my MOT due to my citylight was not visible. :mad:
even though i said " but i have my halo's as a replacement.
but they say that the halo's must be able to turn on even if your keys are out of the ignition.

hehe, well mine do, I can turn them on with my key! hehe

Hopefully I don't have my car when the whole MOT thing starts.

durgesh, so can mine. :D
i have the remote mod done on my wp dde's too. :D
but what i mean is the city lights can be turned on with the keys out and stayed on until you switch it back off.
"Not fade away at the same time as the interior lights"
if you know what i mean.
