Best head light bulbs?

 

[White16valver]

normal?

HID?

What's your budget?

Have you had a search for 'bulbs'??

lol as above

Good luck changing the drivers side bulb. The passenger side is tricky enough, but the AC pipes on the other side make it extremely difficult. Small hands are a good start, then dislocate all your fingers with a hammer, and you're good to go. Just pop the fingers back in when you're done

You're not legally allowed to fit HID (also sometimes called Xenons) to a 'normal' headlight, you need the 'projector' type ones that the 182s come with.

For a full set up secondhand you're looking at about £300 (I think).

think will just stick with standard bulbs then. any recommended?

I got some good ones for the gti cause they were dire, the new ones are really good and they gave me free sidelight bulbs which are also really good and a free spare headlightbulb, need to look up where i got em as it was Ally that recommended them.

I'll find out and post back later

Which bulbs are the best for a 182 Cup to give a brighter whiter light as a Xenon conversion would be around £300 ?
