   HID's cant be used in angels. Melts the plastic lenses. And HID's cant come on as sidelights even if you could use them.

   Not sure about Mk1 angels, but on Mk2 angels you can put in your standard sidelight bulb holder, then you can just get a bright LED bulb.

   ahh right see i had to cut my sidelight bulb connections off the car to fit these angels so thats out of the question... but saying that... the angels take the same bulbs as the standard headlights so maybe there is a strong bulb i can put in?? think the bulbs are 501 for the sidelights??
   
   whats the best 501 bulb around??
