Title: Side Light LED's
Post by: golf nutter on January 15, 2012, 10:05:34 am

I bought some from ebay not too long ago and they had a nice blue tint, but typically didnt last long.  anyone got a link to some inexpensive side light LED's that give off a blue-ish tint?

I've tried a couple of different eBay led ones and both only lasted a couple of months..
Ended up going back to my trusty 'Mtec' xenon look halogens, £3.99 a set and have lasted 2 years so far  :happy2:

Beddie, I'm looking to buy these too to go with my Mtec H7's, did you pass an Mot with them in?

That's great, thanks.  :happy2: Thought I'd double check as I asked the seller if they were legal and he said they're not e-marked but should pass.
