Recommend white DRLs

Post by serge »

Hey folks,

I want to change my daytime running lights - they are amber color now and I dislike it since the car is white and other lights are white as well. However, a query for Osram P21W doesn't yield too many quality results.. can you recommend good quality white (not blue) daytime lights? I also looked at PY21W but not sure those can fit on a Scirocco?

Thanks!

thanks mate, but that's more than I'd like to spend - I simply thought about replacing the native yellow DRLs with whites.. ?

Looking for the same.... I tried some 'white' LED replacement bulbs, but they had a hint of blue which isn't what I want....

Surely somebody on here has had some success??

After much consideration I took delivery of another set of P21W LED's, with the promise of being 'pure white'...

I'm pleased to say that these are perfect as the light doesn't have a hint of blue, which is exactly what I was after.

the images don't do the bulbs justice - the light is very clean and looks infinitely better than the regular yelllow bulbs :yes:

£11.98, from a UK seller.

Hopefully this helps some of you looking for the same......

Are those LEDs still working properly?

No error messages?

Thanks!
