Changed HeadLight bulbs
I am sure this has been covered to death but .......
Minor mod but have been really disappointed on the D4 headlight front. Very yellow lights and make driving in non-lit streets pretty tiring.
This could have been due to the near side headlight bulb being out - I was quite surprised that one of the 'puters didnt tell me.
I went to Halfords to buy a replacement. They had an offer on to "buy one get one free" on the +130% jobbies. I decided to go with these, twice the price of regular but thought at £30 was worth a risk
Must say, apart from a slight blue hue at the top of the light when facing a wall they are pretty good for £30. Nice white light and a better distance than the old ones.D4 HSE - Aintree Green
D4 Orkney my13 - gone
Stornaway D4. Gone, Didn't like it at all
D3 silver manual. Loved my first LR
They are great while they last, having gone through 2 sets of the 100% brighter forunners (in 2 cars) I can vouch for the fact that they blow way quicker than the normal halogens, the reason why I did the Hids mod on the D3
I would be interested to see how you get on with the new "ultimate's" though, I assume these are the Ring derivatives that you have bought, they are supposed to last better?Altox GSM FBH controller thread
