Change of Bulbs - Diamond Vision

[Ashton]

Due to the fact that i live out in the sticks and the nights are drawing in i was in desperate need on upgrading the standard headlight bulbs

I was sick to death of the poor light emmitted from my 200 so i upgraded my bulbs for the new Phillips Diamond Vision 5000K

I was going to get a another HID kit from HIDS4U but i heard such good things about the PDV thought id give them a go at a snip of the price

The difference was huge as you can see from pics

I also changed the yellow sidelight bulbs for 5 point 360 degree LED versions

Mucho Improvmento

I need some bulbs for new projectors!

Are these bulbs road legal? Pass an MOT?

Are these bulbs road legal? Pass an MOT?

They look wicked!!

From the phillips website:

Are they legal to use and do I need to modify my vehicle?

The product is not road legal but is directly interchangeable with your existing bulbs. There's no need to modify your vehicle, just replace the lamps.

craig:

Unsure on the legality side of things but was far easier than installing HIDs. MOT wise.......wont need one untill 2014

I got them from Autobulbsdirect. use discount code 'strathy' for 25% off too

RRP is 39.99 per pair in H7 format

I ordered 2 pair for both dipped beam and main beam

Nice one Bux!!

My 197 has got it's second MOT next month, so will get through that, then change them over so get a full years use out of them!!

Cheers for posting these up dude! What sidelights you got to go with them?
I want to change my indicator ones to the silver ones to, still flash amber.
