Title: Mk5 Gti with yellow high beams
Post by: MKV_Sean on December 11, 2014, 12:37:51 pm
Hey chaps,

Looking for a bitta help on this. I was trawling through the Internet and came across this snap. Yellow bulbs for the high beams. This is purely for show and they look unreal matched with the Xenon's.

I have xenon's on my own Gti so I'm looking to do this. Has anyone ever changed their bulbs to this and are sidelight bulbs the same or are they a different fitting? The only 'yellow effect' bulbs I can find on eBay are for sidelight bulbs. Will these work?

Thanks

Got yellows in the fogs. H7 is the bulb type so have a look at these.

I have them in mine. Fitment for high beam is H7, sidelights are just 501s. I have EBay item no. 380818629691 in mine, pics at http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,79074.0.html
