Philips Blue Vision Sidelights are a good upgrade. Not LED though.

Do they give a blue tone to the light? I am looking for brilliant White.

The bulb looks blue but they burn white. Looked spot on when I installed some uprated bulbs in my last car though not sure if they will be white enough for HID's. Worth a Google anyhow.

I`ve got 2 spare (9 led smt`s). I got new headlights to fit today hopefully, so I`ll check they work (don`t think they`ve been fitted) and let ya know

*EDIT* Sorry they`re too big, they must be numberplate ones

I've got warm white LEDs in my classic, not the cool white that look blue. A better match for uprated normal bulbs, but may be too yellow against HID? Worth a look and SMD LEDs are the way forward, uber-bright.
