Pics In the Dark!!

Post by Creedy »

Hi All,

Ive got a few new bits on bobs goin on the car very soon, but am also looking to upgrade the bulbs round most of the car, and wondered if people could possibly post up pictures of their car at night showing how bright their lights are, side lights, fogs... all pics welcome.. (plus what lights they have)

I have been looking at some phillips X - treme bulbs and the Phillips Blue vision side lights... (i think Jeff uses these so pics of your headlights at night would be appriecated)

Thanks all

My thread has the odd pic of different bulbs fitted. http://www.uk-polos.net/view ... 13&t=38619

The philips blue vision and extreme aren't all that. I'm using extreme for my fogs but the blue vision side lighst are rubbish really. Also using blue vision full beam and used to have blue vision dipped. No noticible difference there. Maybe a tiny bit brighter. Cant call them white or blue. HID's and LED's all the way. Bulbs last longer and are brighter and whiter.

for those who don't know what kind of bulb they need try this site :D

i was very useful to me.

about those pics in the dark, they are not quite relevant because it all depends on what the exposure of the camera is. i can shoot a photo with minimal light and make you think it was daylight and vice-versa ... i think the best way to decide if there is enough light is to see them live
