and similar to the look you see on some Beemers.

LED bulbs £1.99, HID's £40, looking even more of a cock, priceless.

Some things money can't buy, for everything else, there's Shady.

 :grin: :grin: :kiss:

In fairness the LED rear bulbs just make sure the numberplate lights up better, because with standard bulbs it's hardly visible and yellow.

LEDs don't give as wide of an angle. :wink:
Golf MK3 1.8 auto and I didn't pay a grand for the "priveledge" :grin:, auto windows all round and a AC. Oh and I've got a luggage net you pricks!

got leds on mine, prefere the look, but they deffo dont have the angle that the normal bulbs have, they are pointing in the wrong angle as standard so some adjustment would be needed if you wanted them to illuminate the plate more, i notice they light the road up more than the plate haha

Because I have HIDs and they are illegal, Matty feels the need to aim comments at me that he think will make me feel unloved, unwanted or useless.  :grin: In all fairness having HIDs is illegal unless you have the right equipment to run them, and recently there has been a bit of a debate on here about their illegality or not, some still fight the side that they are fine if ran in projector headlights, other are sticking to the 3 things that are required to make them work correctly.

I choose to say they are illegal, but still run them because it is my choice, if I' get bummed for it it's my head.  :smiley:

Nope, you won't get any agro from the HID Haters with better bulbs, they encourage better bulbs so you stay within the law. Nothing wrong with that. :afro:

i tried up rated bulbs, the only up rated thing about them was the price , complete waste of time, you think they are better but then when you are honest to yourself you realise that they are no better than the ones you replaced

hids are alot better, but they do dazzle in non projector headlights

theirs a few cocks on here who have nowt better to do than try put people down who run hids, i like shady ignore these keyboard warriors, but it is funny seeing the arguments, some people really do have too much time on their hands  :grin:
