Has anyone purchased these,thinking of getting my self a pair, the LED sidelights I have now look a bit bluey and fancy some whiter ones.

501 LED (W5W) Super Bright Wide Spread Sidelight (6000K) - 12.99 - HID and Xenon lighting kit

I bought a set of the 6000k headlight bulbs (your thread was very useful) from this company yesterday for my MCS. I was going to also purchase these sidelight bulbs for my Halos to match the headlight bulbs but when I looked at the bulbs in the sidelight halos they look exactly the same as the ones in the link you have posted.

So I decided to just order the headlight bulbs for now and see how good match they are.

I have white LEDs from ebay...they match my actual real xenons brilliantly. Cost me about £2 or something daft. I have to get a new pair every 18 months or so as one of them always develops a slight flicker eventually....but for that sort of cash they are great.

Yeah there are many different LED sets, Wow I wouldn't pay £29 for a set though!

Oh how i love ebay!
I got a set of four 7500k(60% more light) headlight bulbs, LED sidelight bulbs and a set of chrome indicator bulbs all for £20. Probably wont last as long as philips etc bulbs but who cares i can replace them four times over at this price.
With these new bulbs and my spots my local country lanes now light up as though i have harnessed the sun to the front of my mini

Have you got Xenons?
How can you have 7500k from a Halogen bulb...

No i haven't got zenons i have just replaced the halogen bulbs. I dont know how they get 7500k brightness as im no sparky but that what it says on the packaging.
All i know is they are a huge improvement over the old bulbs and give a brighter white beam instead of the old yellowy ones.
