...have to admit they look pap when the xenons have only just been turned on, but are a much closer match once the Xenons have warmed up, than the too blue LEDs.

Best thing about these though, are theyre very bright, they give out a lot mor elight than the standard bulbs.

Ahh, nice one Damo... off to check out mikeythemini's stuff.

I got the free BlueVision sidelight bulbs from PowerBulbs.com when I ordered the SilverVision indicator bulbs. They're great when they're on, but I don't really like the look of the blue-coated glass when they're off. I've been living with it for the time being because I really do like the whiter light they give off, but I may look into getting some of Mikey's bulbs...

Mini Lou · Jul 20th, 2004, 06:23 PM

Yea, I hate that yellow tint. That looks a lot better. I must source some....

AidenL · Jul 20th, 2004, 06:32 PM

Nicer alright............as Paul said, the Blue Bulbs might be alright with Indi Blue, but they don't do much for the look of a Red car............

I highly recommend mikey. Become mates since he's done so many ace things to my car for me.

I'll second what Damo said. Mikey is your man for MINI gadjets and accessories

Paul · Jul 22nd, 2004, 09:43 AM

Only Abi's taken the 'S' today, and not meaning to be rude, but I'm not wasting these on her One.

Hi Paul, have you fitted these yet? What they like?

Paul · Jul 26th, 2004, 10:47 AM

Fitted them.....

Sidelights. The Osrams Mikey sent are much better than the Philips bluevision. Look nice and white when lit, and dont look anywhere near as blue when switched off.

Indicators. I prefer the look of the Philips silvervision over the Osram Dio(thingumy) indicators. The Osrams just look a little too blue/purply for my tastes compared to the Philips.

Thanks for the info Paul. Do you have the model of these? Are they "Cool Blue"? I know Mikey sells them, but I'm just having a browse of the Osram site!

The same setup I have, I replaced the OSRAM's in my red/white rear lights to Philips to.
