   Hi guys (and gals)
   
   As above, trying to find some nice bulbs. Had standards for a while, the changed to White LED's as sidelights and RIng 100w Sportzblue lights.
   
   Doesn't seem blue at all though.
   
   To give the blueish appearance, is that down to the sidelights more than the headlight?
   
   With the led's. they are PROPER blue when just sidelights are on, but they are so weak that you can't see shit when just these are on - obviously a decorative thing.
   
   Are there any powerful blue sidelights that anyone can recommend?
   
   Any pics of your lights and how bright/blue they are would be sweeeet

   You also want to think about being road legal? as some kits wont pass an MOT

   If lights are too blue then you'll be pulled straight away for those and given a £30 fine

   HID conversions in saxo lights look the tits, but the light pattern scatters so you have to revert to std bulbs for MOT and you blind people drivin on the other side of the road when theyre on as it scatters. Theyre also making them illigal soon because of this apparently. Mercs etc have headlight units that are built for HID use so the beam doesnt scatter
