Non LED DRL bulbs

Post by James1984 » Sat Aug 17, 2019 9:23 am

Has anyone got any recommendations for a the drl bulbs that aren’t as yellow as normal bulbs? I have leds at the moment which are mostly error free but they have resistors and additional wiring shoved in the headlight which get hot. Thanks

I got MTEC ones from eBay and they do the job. Normal filament bulbs but white when on.

I found them on someone's B7 build thread. Can't remember off the top of my head. Try a search for MTEC bulbs.

They look blue when not lit up but are a nice white colour when illuminated.
