Which bulbs replace my headlight?
« on: 02 December 2012, 18:51 »
I can't remember weather I use H7,H1 or H4? anyone got any ideas? also I want to upgrade the standard "yellowish" colour for something alittle more well.... modern. I dont want to use a  KID kit because I hate prats that use them and blind me because they dont know how to set them up, just want something brighter than normal and does the job :)

I dont have my mk4 yet so unsure on what H type you take but..    on subject of colour. Ring spoetz blue give a very white/blueish output. Or night breakers osram ones are rated highly or even philips ones are meant to be good
