Here are the pics of the Halogen Artic White H7/H11's as requested

Ty Alex once again for the Pictures.





Pics were just quick shots of the lights, nothing special.
I need to change my DRL Lights though.

he says that they are nokya arctic white bulbs. they are 7000k color i think? also accordingly, the lumens it outputs on the road would be less than regular stock halogen bulbs. you can find em on ebay. cost me ~15 plus shipping.

Thumbs up

Looks good... 'Xenon' White DRL bulbs and Turn Signals will complete the look... IMHO, this is the best deal for people who do NOT want to spend more than 50 bucks on geting close to xenon appearence...

I used the W5W bulb available on ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/W5W-S...spagenameZWD1V

Works like a charm. The same seller also sells silver coated xenon white turn signal bulbs for about $10 shipped.

Do this, and then change out the amber side turn signals and there is no more amber (except for the plastic amber reflector in the headlight casings). Gives the car a much cleaner look... for cheap!!

Yes, Like NewBMWDriver said... they are called parking lights, the small wedge bulb (W5W) in the high beam reflector. Takes 2 minutes to replace, though the one on driver side is harder to replace cause there's just no space... i have small hands and could squeeze both my hands in!!

I am travelling (again!!) till next week. Will post pictures of my setup once i get back.
