So I was unsure which way to go with the headlights, and thought I would try out the OSRAM Unlimited headlights hoping they would be white enough to match the LED DRL's I fitted.
After looking around I decided to get the 9006 fitment as there wasn't many bulbs for the 9012 they have in standard, I trimmed the right hand tab down to make it fit. I used a cut piece of card to make sure I trimmed the right amount off as shown below:
Here is the bulbs next to each other ready to be fitted:
So I was hoping for the light to be as close to the LED DRL's as possible, although it is slightly whiter I don't think it matches enough for me to keep it that way.
I didn't realize it would be as yellow as it is but it's a learning curve at least, here is the lights compared with the standard..
OSRAM Unlimited on the left headlight and the standard headlight on the right headlight.
It looks a bit yellower than it seems in the camera, suppose its a little close to the DRL than it was before. I've had a read of Cornishtaz's thread using a HID kit and am just unsure whether it would blind other drivers etc using a HID kit with reflector headlights.
