i modded one of my 600 headlights to fit them in. The light output was no more than a standard LED sidelight, so stuck my 100W rally bulb back in and threw the LED's in the bin
H1 LED Bulb Warning !!!
Hi All !!!
I though I would post this up as I have seen several Members including myself fall foul of the LED H1 Bulbs, they don't fit anything that takes a H1 Bulb be it the Main Beam (for show not practical use) or the early Front Foglights, the LED section is too big to fit the hole for the original bulb, I have tried the 64, 36, 24 and 9 LEd bulbs, non fit, the 9 LED would prob fit with a little trimming but to be honest its not worth it for the amount of light they put out !!!
I recomend fitting the later H11 Front Fogs and fitting the 64 or 36 LED H11 Bulbs depending on which colour you need to match your headlights/side lights as the colours vary for the small SMD and large SMD Chip LED units !!!
