Title: Front Bulbs in silver.
Post by: richw911 on 30 December 2007, 17:09
Has Any one fitted the silver indicator bulbs to the front of their Mk4 golf?
 Ive just got myself some to get rid of the so called "Fried egg" effect of the standard orange ones. Looks like a cheap mod (£5 pair from a local motor store)  :evil:

I had them in my mk3..... looks  :cool: but they flash duller than o.e (and look red rather than orange)
best go for philips silver ones as they wont cause you police trouble! you pay for what you get with these!!

I've got a set in mine and it definitely changes the look of the front. I'm putting HID conversion bulbs in mine so I'll be needing the brightest bulbs I can find for the headlights now, I think its gonna have to be LED bulbs
