Side lights

by debairaclijr » Wed Nov 21, 2007 4:18 pm

Hi all,

Been searching for a while now and can find the info i'm after. I need a new side light and just wanted to find out what my options are? ie. is there anything I can get that will slightly improve my dipped beam? and where would I get them from?/how much should I be paying (nearest options to me are halfrauds/masterfit-up)

Thanks

correct me if im wrong. which i dont think i am. but the sidelights are entirely seperate from headlights on the cally.. so no there are no sidelights you can get that will improve the dipped beam at all. you'd need to look to replace the main headlight bulb for that as above or with higher performance(not rating) bulb.

Thats the question... do they exist? Thanks for the responses. The side lights (parking lights) on mine stay on with the dipped beam which is why I was thinking if I can get super power LED's instead, it might help with the headlights at the same time.

I know tim2001(?) used to sell a lot of bulbs. Is he still around?

Try after market neon angel eyes..Like Fatz sells/sold, on ebay and easy to fit. They don't light up the road obviously, but run from the sidelights and look better than a standard single bulb. Glue them into place..fit the inverters and youre away.

You could try these?...dont know what they would be like on a cally..but only about 14 pounds for both on ebay?..thats cheeper than neons with an inverter?..these look like LED type?

BMW Style Angel Eye Rings Universal Fit !! The price is for one pair of rings, They have an internal diameter of just under 100mm. They come with a frame which can be cut down or ground down to assit with fitting. These are universal fit and one of the pictures shows them fitted into a Mondeo mk2 headlig
