New light Bulbs

[kibster89]

What would you guys recommend as un upgrade to the standard bulbs?? either ice white or blue i was thinking??

[Bigfeet]

Never understood blue bulbs...

My vote would be the white ones and the very nature of a bulb is to illuminate.

[kibster89]

ok cheers fella. Where would be the best to get them from. i have looked on ebay but everytime i put the model in the compatablity check says they wont fit??

Notice it's your first post so welcome.
There's lots on here already if you use the search function but maybe this would be a good place to bring it all together!

I looked earlier and thought it was to help you decide the type and code of light you'd need ? Write that down and then check out Amazon or eBay for the best prices

Hey All,

I do LED kits for some of the Mini forums. One of my mates has just got a new 13-plate DS3 Sport for his missus.
Made up and installed an 11-piece kit last night - looks much better than standard.

Next - he needs to decide on an HID kit and replacement fog bulbs. Any advice?

Another question - do you all like the amber glow footwell mood lights?
Thinking he could change this for clear/white as per the bootlight unit - anyone done this?

Cheers.

Yeah me, think I just got cheap ebay 48 SMD's in there

And the boot light lenses are very low cost. Paid 12 euro and that was including the black plastic surround so figure half that for just the lens.

I don't know if the H7R HID Kit I need should be a Canbus system or not
