I was going to buy PIAA for the DRL ,found on ebay but description says they are not Road Legal for UK and europe.is it true as i have read about PIAA being the best for DRL halogen bulb on this forum.

i know it says error free but since i have astra J 5 door it would defo need resistors which i am really lazy to add and bolt them lol althought would love to have LEDs . found these halogens on amazon,reviews claiming to be as good if not better than PIAA 4300K slightly above road legal limit i guess.

I've used them bulbs myself they are nice and white the first set I had lasted a while the second set only a couple of weeks.
Bare in mind if you use them you *could* get an MOT fail as the bulb is blue.

MOT is until 2020 , they might not last that long lol . I have ordered them , when you say blue ,you mean bluish light Does it warrant for the police to stop me lol , dont want unneccessary attention ,you know what i mean

I have put these bulbs,they are bright white but on a sidelight mode they are bit dim.

My drivers side DRL dust cover was missing and both lugs for bulb holder were broken too ,thats why my headlight was misting everytine there was rain ,must have been previous owner. it was a nightmare taking out the holder,connections were rusty inside so i had to try few times to get a good bulb connection .Thought to replace the bulb holder but read in this forum its either new headlight or a smash one from scrap yard.
