Liking the new rears much better , but I'm not 2 clued up on the bulb swap scene looking at the repeater bulbs , been egg yellow , kind ov spoils the look.
My question

So
What bulbs do I replace with for the cleanest looking lens
Make & part number much app

Regards mic

Had Philips and silvatec and wouldn't think twice about having either.
You just need to look at your current bulbs to establish if the pins are in line or offset and order accordingly

Hi, I'm thinking about doing the same swap on my hawkeye. I understand its a straight swap but I was wondering if you could tell me if the reverse lights on both sides now work on the hawkeye or if some additional wiring would be involved as the standard UK harkeye rear lights only have the reverse light on one side.

This is what you need, I bought and fitted these to my blob a few weeks ago - they look much better

That looks stunning. What are the wheels and suspension you are using?
