i have decided to add some white LED's too 
they look well nice! Thought about adding them in my boot, splicing into the boot light and then covering the boot light with some black tape or something and then i have LED boot light with no errors

Finally went and bought some red calliper paint, just hope it will look good with the yellow...
love the inside of the CUPRA R
Yeah its a nice place to sit.
Cheers! Yes they are decent and have been scotchguard treated.
Are the genuine Seat or from and independant company - they look top dollar and i'll be needing some myself soon, any chance of a link or details of where you got them?
Cheers!
What lengths did you go for?
Link to said sellers, they sound helpful and reliable
I've gone with 12 smd's at the front for each side and 9 in the back for each side. Just buy a meter of 3528 from any of the sellers and the wire from poundland...making them is a 10 min job!....it really is that simple.
Depends how bothered you are for intensity. Best compromise is osram nightbreaker plus i think.
If you just want the HID look then MTEC superwhites is what i use
Cheers mate. I can't work out what the problem is. My car just keeps shutting the power down for the drivers side headlight.
My HID kit is canbus pro, so can't work it out!
I like to have a decent amount of light on the road, which of the two do you recommend?
I've used both, i've stuck with the MTECs because i judt drive around town mainly, so street lights mean i don't need powerful lights, i prefer the HID look. Tbh i find them okay on country roads, and most of the time don't bother using my full beam.
I know other people really don't like them, they say they're just no good! I guess its personal opinion.
The nightbreakers are good, but they still have a yellow tinge, especially if youre using LED sidelights.
Heres a picture of my MTEC superwhite h7 and MTEC sidelights too:
Worth a pop at either bulb, they're only a tenner of ebay

Thanks Jarre, much appreciated. (Nice YPLAC'ing in that bus stop too
)It's my drivers side headlight that keeps having problems, I've bought canbus pro ballasts and even swapped them over to make sure it isn't them, and it isn't.
I had an epiphany earlier that it could have been the bulb as they're about 3 or 4 years old now, and so, as I had a set of spare HID bulbs laying around (like you do
) I decided to give it one last try before I threw the ers out!Anyway... I've just been for a quick drive and tried them with the new bulbs and they seem fine! They error on the cluster & MFD when they first boot up (like they did before), but then the error goes after 5 seconds or so.
I'm off out in a bit so I'll give them a proper test (on off on off on off on off
) and let you know if I end up flinging them in the middle of the motorway somewhere!Worst comes to the worst, I'll stick the full set on eBay for half what I paid for them and get some new bulbs of sorts.
Cheers

Simply put, I've no clue what the
problem is! The HIDs are coming out tonight and I'm having a set of osrams. so gutted.

Think of the positive side...it will now pass its MOT!

Lol, true, though the £60 I spent on my new HID kit and the £20 it'll cost me to replace the caps on thr back of thr headlight units, could have gone towards it's first AND second MOT
. Dayum! Wish I knew what the issue was.Similar threads
