Title: PIAA Xtreme White 4150K Better Than Philips Blue Vision 3400k Sidelight Bulbs?
Post by: deanpoli on 05 August 2008, 14:21

Would this sidelight bulb fit the golf, as in the description on the website link below t says its for the Audi A3/S3? Even though its a W5W bulb?

Would these bulbs be a better option than the Philips Blue Vision sidelight bulbs which are only 3400k?

No this is not my car I took this off the Audisport forum, saw someone using these bulbs, wanted to know if they would fit the golf as they should do as its a W5W fitment.

For a colour output of 4150K they should match the Xenons nicely.

I dont have zenons, but osram silver stars, so was just wondering if its worth the upgrade as i've only got the free blue ones they give you with the H7s
