#1: Need new bulbs, which are the best? Author: marc206, Location: Bourne, Lincs PostPosted: Wed Aug 10, 2011 4:31 pm

So hey, I'm sorry if this is in the wrong section but I just wanted to ask you guys something.

So the thing is I went to get my brother from the train station the other night and my headlights really do, well SUCK. I could barely see a thing. Maybe 5 or 6 feet infront of me.

I'm not sure if its the bulbs or the actually headlight, so I'm gunna try to get some new bulbs. Just wondering which are the best for both dipped beam/sidelights.

Would love to hear your feedback. Thanks! Thumb Up

I dont see what problem you have. Even my morettes with standard bulbs I could see everything I needed to. Are you sure the alignment is ok?

There checked on the mot test.

Could always ask a small friendly mot station to have a look with the beam alignment tool when there not busy, couple of beers in back pocket normally works

Ok then, might do that before buying new bulbs, but then again when i bought the car they did an mot on it. But i guess it wouldn't hurt to get it double checked Smile

to be fair you mightaswell just park up by a wall and check what angle theyre both at. and make sure its not set on the lowest setting in the car unless there's lots of weight in the back.
