UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Hi Guys,

My g.f just got a brand new polo 1.4 i think SEL in white (need to upload pix)

Now i own the shape before from the polo series and i got all led bulbs (numberplate, interior lights, sidelights) inside my car and for her i recently got the sidelights changed to white led's to match the white carn

But i was wondering could anyone give me the link from hids4u.co.uk for the numberplate lights as she really wants them, also for the daylight running lights, i havent looked but she said that the lights are a different light to the main beam lights is this true, or are the main beams on all the time. i havent really looked so i dont know

But if anyone could give me the links for and leds that go in the car would be so greatful!

Sidelights are still the standard 501 wedge type bulbs mate. Dipped beam is constantly on acting as the DRLS. These are H7 bulbs. Also, the High beams are H7 also.

But just remember these cars are running canbus so all led bulbs need to be of canbus type.

As for the numberplates, am not sure which ones you have, but i bought the complete lamp replacement from HIDS4U and they are absolutly awesome compared to those who just replace the standard bulb for an led festoon bulb. I bought these ones and they work a treat. http://www.hids4u.co.uk/vw-led-number-plate-light.html

See my progress thread, i think i put a pic of the back end of mine at night with them on, they much brighter than the bmws and mercs

I am trying to find your post on the numberplate lights but i cant seem to find it...

Its on the first page mate, called 'another white polo gti'

Areet bud a just bought my polo moda, and jw, wen i get a HID kit should i replace the side lights as well, or is the kit so bright you dont need to,

also what should i do about the fogs, i dont want multi coloured lights

Tbh mate, for the price of a set of leds, i would just change them. Its a 2 second job to fit as well. Will look much better too matey. For the fogs, av got a pair of led foggys. 5000k. There alot bluer than my hids but look alot better than that naff yellow colour.

Cheers for ya help bud. Just fitted a pair of blue LEDs in sides the day look sweet as. Waiting for payday for the rest

Were did u get these foggs from mat as I am wanting a pair. And what are the sizes needed. Plus is they Four fog lights bulbs all together. Because as I look in the fog light it looks as of they are 2 bulbs in each light

Got mine from autobulbs pal. Think they where about 25 each bulb lol Well worth it though. If i remember rightly, they are HB4 bubls in mine. If youve got 2 bulbs in each foggy, they could be different bud as ones for the corning lights. Or is a bluemotion yours bud? as they have DRLs in the foggys.

its the 1.2 moda mate, and a dont have drl in fogs but a shouldnt have cornering lights ether, unless they have put them in by mistake haha, all a want is blue fogs to match the other lights as i have blue sides, and getting fitted ice blue HIDs for next pay

Ive had all the different colours of HIDS in my past 3 polos mate, and these 4800K (anti-glare) are by far the best ive ever had. They look sporty, but they also cast a nice bright white light onto the road. the 5000k / 6000k look more bluey but are no where near as bright at night. And you said your fogs seem to have 2 bulbs in each side? that would mean you have corning lights as our GTI's only have one bulb for normal fogs. The other half is blank unless you selected corning fogs matey.

A must have corning lights then even thou I didn't ask for them haha wtf

I have cornering lights but only one bulb in each side, it uses the fog light for the cornering function. Is there definitely a second bulb in each side?

The cornering foggys should defo have 2 bulbs, thats why the fog light sits right on the edge of the bumper so it lights up the road your turning in to.

I went out to check my car before commenting before because i was unsure but there is definitely only one bulb, and my (individual) fog lights do come on with the indicators and at slow speeds when the lights are switched on.
