Having checked the tech info about lamp fittings, I ordered 4 Osram +50's, went to fit them to my 97 barge, only to find that instead of having 4 H1 lamps, i've got H7's in my high beam. These are projector lenses if that helps. Is it worth a quick poll to see if all projectors have H1 / H7 combinations?
Ta muchly.

Sorry, don't know which bulbs fit which, as both my Omegas are HIDs (though I do have a spare set of projectors on my dining room table ::))
Why don't you start a poll?
-
By the way, are the pins on the front indicator bulbs offset or opposite?
I want to get some chrome ones to get rid of the "orange look".

The rears are offset, never had to change a front one...
-
All projectors are H1/H7.....not read the tech info stuff....will check it over some time.

If they are projectors, then it will have H7 according to that info (it says H7 fitted to high beam on all mini facelift onwards). If you have projectors (that haven't been retro fitted) then its mini facelift...

Hi..I used to drive a november 1998 2.5 cdx..that had projector lights ..they were next to useless..bulbs in low beam were H7 and H1 in high beam..the only way I could see was to drive with fog lights on as well..kept being pulled over by "plod"warning me of fine ..as not foggy..told him lights were us but they don,t care..atleast I now have some proper lights thanks to changing to Elite..that has HID on low beam and they are truly great
-
Just read the what is prefacelift / facelift FAQ and you are right, i do have a mini facelift. Never realised that before :-[
-
Can't wait to see my HID's on my way home in the morning, I've never driven a car with them before :o

IIRC they are offset. I have chrome ones fitted and they look great. Halfords now do an irredesant blue bulb now, that looks like a bluebottle in petrol - they might look nice next to your HID's. :)

Anyone know for sure?

Luckily for you, I have a spare pair of projector headlights on my dining room table, much to Mrs TheBoy's disgust.
Just checked, offset.

Still, she should be pleased that I have removed the 4 computers and the printer that were on the table for weeks ::)
Women, never happy.

Hi, I have four chrome effect indicators sitting in the shed, pay the postage and they are yours free.
p.s. I have projector type headlights with H1 and H7 bulbs.

The boot is on the other foot in our abode, we have my wifes dolls house stuff everywhere, I'm like the bloody toy maker in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang......... "I smell Kiddies!" ;D ;D ;D ;D

Seeing this thread I realised I hadn't been out in the dark since I fitted my +50% bulbs from powerbulbs so I went out last night and have to say I'm very impressed with the difference. I've got the original ribbed lights but I've polished them everytime I've polished the car and the lenses aren't tarnished but I've never been comfortable with them...
until now :)
