Try something like Philips X-treme +100% bulbs or Osram nightbreakers. I put the X-tremes in my old BM and the difference was pretty good, and white. Not bad for £20 or so from Amazon. I have the Nightbrrakers in the 2 Jazzez (from AF on special offer) and they are also nice and white, plus lot brighter. Don't forget to upgrade the full beam bulbs as well, that really helps.

Here is my photo...



So I have upgraded the Halogens also but they still look quite yellow compared to the LED. I guess this is about the best I can expect without replacing the units. Would be interested in your comments Thumbs Up

Do you have a before pic? Not suggesting you stick an old halogen back in if not though. Whistle Whistle

It is hard to get what pure white colour from halogens. I put in some warm white LEDs good few months ago, they turned out to be a perfect color match for the Osram Nightbreakers. Kind of half way between Halogen Yellow and pure white LED/Xenons.

No before pics unfortunately because I changed them in the daylight... Im happy with the increased brightness, and the LED is providing a very nice blue tinge to the outer edges of the beams.

I think its ok until I can get myself a set of Xenons Wink

Steve-
I want to fully kit the car out with LED's for a 2006 RRS. I see you do full kits for the Disco but do you do something similar for RRS. Also do you reckon I should go for the SMD panels or these new bulbs as listed in the full Disco kit?
Thanks
James
