with regards to the guys who bought the dectane lights from orange tuning,

any ideas what colour the ring LED's are?

on the pic they look white but i dont want to buy and be sdissapointed

[red6n2]

they are the crappy yellow colour but are easy enough to change... you need these bulbs to change them to white

i have 8000k hid and these bulbs were pretty much a lkike for like white with them.

the bulbs are called 286 wedge bulbs you can get them from ebay etc

and if you do change them make sure you get some spare 7.5 fuses as you will blow some changing them over

any other questions let me know.

[benmkiv]

those led's fit in the dectane lights too?

how often do you get fuse blows? and how many of the wedge bulbs do you need?

does anyone have a pic of the dectane ones on the car? are they a lot different to the FK angel eyes?

[red6n2]

mate their basiically identical ! even have the lhd/rhd switch... even read on a couple of other forums these are better as to why im not so sure but a few people seem to think so.

the fuses dont blow once its done but installing them i blew like 7 fuses cause led's have to be a specific way round or they wont work.

i needed 20 of the 286 bulbs im happy with them... they give off a good projection.

and yes i realise my indicator is hanging down lol i broke a clip

and yes i realise my indicator is hanging down lol i broke a clip

lol i broke my clips too...on both sides

got the replacement clips from vw £10 each, not happy, but at least my indicators stay in now lol

i thought on the orange tuning site the lights come with the black indicators attached, did you remove them?

[red6n2]

bought em second hand for 90 quid indicators didnt come with em dunno why ill buy some off ebay but im moving abroad for 3 months so waiting till after i get back just trying to save at the min.

fair enough dude, looks good anyway!

i don't know whether to go for the chrome ones or the black, black would be kool but i like the cleanness of the stock lights

the FKs are quite cheap on venom, might get those after my exams

[benmkiv]

did youi have any trouble getting the LED's to stay in? heard there is problems

all in all what would i need?

obviously lights and the LED's and HID kit what did you do about your side lights?

[red6n2]

i heard or some people having problems wuith that but i personnally didnt... basically the bulb holders for the led's are kind of loose once removed, but i suppose if they did become loose like a small amount of electrical tape will solve that, all you need is yourself the lights... 20 of the 286 wedge bulbs in a colour of your choice (i wouldnt recomend going for any colour other than white else it will be chavin'ell.) and possibly a pair of needle nose pliars to place the bulbs back in the slots depending on how nimble your fingers are... i think i made a mini guide actually ill see if i can dig it up. oh and the halo rings are the side lights . if yuou dont want them on then just take out the side light fuses... simples . oh and make sure the lever inside is set to RHD (RIGHT HAND DRIVE) before installing else you will be blinding on coming traffic... they arent electroniocally adjustable so you will loose that function and the beam sits quite low... i can take a pic tommorrow night of how low it sits if yuu like ?

and for the dilema between chrome or black the chrome are tempting but the black ones look so much cooler ... and you know what they say once you go black you never go back... lol

[red6n2]

thats them standard... awfull !... and the technicolour dream car was due to me crashing lol...

(its pretty much back to normal now... besides being smoothed at the front... maybe one day it will be again !

[benmkiv]

they look the don on the pics above, was the loss of half the rings due to switching from LHD to RHD and di you fix this?

pic of how low the beam sits would be cool

also alex what were the bulbs you recommended for?
