hicksy Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 lol at the sh!t advice you've been given so far the rings take ordinary side light bulbs, (501's) and you can also get 501's as LED (light emitting diode) which is probably what you want. the hi/lo beam bulbs are H1 and h7, there aren't any H4's these are twin filament low/hi beam in one bulbs as fitted to the standard ford headlights you can buy all the above from halfords but they are cheaper on ebay I think you will find youradvice is sh!t!They do not take 501's and both dipped and full beam are H1 bulbs I had angel eyes on my old finesse and they took these bulbs in the haloshttp://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w200/tomhicks1/DSC00673.jpg Im affraid i cant remember what they are called liam, i got them from a company called ultra, i asked for the T shape LEDs for the halos when i ordered them.

duffa Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 A BUMP for my old topic I need some answers please... The angel eye "rings" bulbs are about £2 each and are easy to replaceWhere exactly are the L.E.D's ? Sounds stupid I know but anychance of a lil help ? My passenger ring rings have went out but dipped and main still work, so my aswell buy 4 new blue LED's and replace all 4 ?I know I could just ask Aaron but Fcuk me it's my car and i'll break it if I want to THEN i'll ask Aaron rings are L.E.D and cant be bought from halfords, you need online specialists for thoseWhat kind of online specialist Kev? As above, my driver side halo's have stopped working so taking the oppurtunity to just replace all 4 as the passenger side are getting a bit dull anyway...,...not that they are bright in the 1st place i'd advise dont bother...1st plod that sees you will stop and tell you to get them replaced ..." Your not a police vehicle are you ? " <<thats what i was told Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeeWee Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 lol at the sh!t advice you've been given so farthe rings take ordinary side light bulbs, (501's) and you can also get 501's as LED (light emitting diode) which is probably what you want. the hi/lo beam bulbs are H1 and h7, there aren't any H4's these are twin filament low/hi beam in one bulbs as fitted to the standard ford headlights you can buy all the above from halfords but they are cheaper on ebay My advice was perfect, I should know I bout them twice lol. I guess it wasnt aimed at me though.Liam they are not blue as standard its sort of an ice white sort of colour. (bit bluey but not lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamGTR Posted April 16, 2010 Author Share Posted April 16, 2010 I was going to say bluey/white but didn't want to sound gay. If I could get just original white, which would go with my headlights and they were the same voltage etc. of the icey blue ones they I might do that ? Maybe they might end up brighter too! Doubt it though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiamGTR Posted April 16, 2010 Author Share Posted April 16, 2010 On their site it says Euro Car Parts is one of their dealers, so will that mean they have the bulbs in stock tomorrow for instance? Or will they still have to order them? Only because there is a Eruo Car Parts in Gateshead and i'm down that way tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScORTED Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 liam, take the bulbs out and see for yourself... I'm pretty sure they were just 501s its a bit bold on hicksys part to assume all after market projectors are exactly the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamGTR Posted April 16, 2010 Author Share Posted April 16, 2010 liam, take the bulbs out and see for yourself...Would love to but no idea where to start looking, guess they pull out the same as the main/dipped bulbs ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
