Bulb Question
I know the Head Lamps are H7's and the Foglight bulbs are H8 but what are the smaller DRL bulbs on the outside of the foglights? Dealer doesn't know?
Thanks
Thanks

Re: Bulb Question
His profile says 2012 Polo. So it's a 6R.
Re: Bulb Question
A h7 bulb is a h7 bulb, so it shouldn't matter if it is advertised for a foglight as it is h7 fitment. The beam is dependant on the light housing itself not the bulb
That t20 bulb does seem a little overpriced to be honest and you can find them on ebay for 5-10 pounds that are advertised as canbus compatible

Re: Bulb Question
Bugger forget about the sidelights in the H7's headlight small bulb located next to full beam. Any ideas for the 6C?
Re: Bulb Question
Are LED H7 headlights legal in the UK? Kits like this

Re: Bulb Question
I would say no.
they don't light anywhere as good as Halogen bulbs. They only look good. the don't light up the road.
They light only comes from two points on the bulb. The halogen bulb delivers light all the way around.
