Postby CozmoNz » Tue Mar 08, 2005 4:39 pm

Anyone know what bulbs Sw20's have in their,

Headlights,
Park lights,
Fog Lights.

Ill be replacing all 3 with Xenon's and would be easier if i knew what to buy first (check if all is in stock).

Are your foglights amber or white? Cos if they are amber then you wont be able to use xenons as the lenses are amber coloured not the actual bulb

Not sure about later models, but my headlights are a sealed unit.
Also, seeing as it wasn't answered before, aren't Xenon bulbs hideously expensive?
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

headlight H4
foggies H3's (99% sure but not 100%)
No "stance", no "hellaflush", none of that bullshit. Nothing but no grip on full boost.
