With so many bulb choices I thought I would take some pics.
In all of these the bulb to the right is the standard one.

Mikey - love the powerbulb, how easy are these to fit, and how do you do 'em?

Mikey, what would be a good match for the pre-2005 Xenons? Powerbulbs?

Root Ginger · Mar 23rd, 2006, 07:26 PM

LED I'd say. You're never going to get a colour match with a conventional bulb. I've had the powerbulb sidelights and the pics make them appear a lot bluer than they are in real life. It's almost impossible to properly capture light outputs with a camera.

What is a powerbulb? ive never heard of it. I want to do LEDs

i like the LED's. But are they legal? How much do you sell the LED' s for mikey?

Root Ginger · Mar 26th, 2006, 10:25 PM

Perfectly legal, unless you get caught
