Sorry to be a royal pleb
I've just been looking at these bulbs on eBay and have no idea W T F all the different ones are,what's with the limited edition gold ones? Are they better or is it a load of bull?
Have any of you got a link to the best ones I should get are?
Cheers again lads. i end up buying things that don't even fit my car if I was to go solo!

Cannot find the link, hit up ukmkivs in their maintenance section. An entire thread on bulbs!
There is probably one on here too actually...

Sorry to bring an old topic back up, I have these still Yet to fit in my car...
Is it worth me not bothering and buying some nightbreakers insted? or will they both be the same?
I have ordered some Nightbreaker H3's,H1's but I cannot find any 501's

501 is just the side light. I don't think there is such a thing as a night breaker side lights. When I bought a full set I just bought standard Osram side lights but they were very yellow so now they've been swapped out for LED's.

I imagine it should be the same idea, tbh.
The best thing to do is fit them and see how much of an improvement they give. For me the night breakers were good, but I now have a set of Depo's and HID to fit because I'd like a little more light.
