Because the H4 bulb is a high and low bulb and the H7 and H1 are independent bulbs, I need to know how to get them both working at the same time on high beam. I wasn’t sure how to title the thread to be honest.
I’m sceptical these cheaper aftermarket LED headlight units are actually legitimately’E’ marked and fully approved for road use. I imagine they just put the relevant marking into the cast for the plastic and have never had them tested.
Having said that those LED drop in H4 ‘bulbs’ are...
Really appreciate the advice on the H4bulbs, have been sifting through a lots of threads to try to find the best option. I assume no errors on the Philips either?
The lamp units from factory are referred to as H4, H7 and LED
Most panel vans had H4, Caravelles had H7 and LED was an option on either....this is being simplistic as any light could be specc'd for any T6 at point of ordering.
The H4 units use a twin filament H4 bulb for high and low beam...
Upgraded my T6 with single headlights H4bulbs to Phillips +60% and a useful upgrade over the standard .
But is it legal to fit a non matched pair as thinking of fitting a Phillips +200% to the near side and keeping the +60 on the offside . Wanting to maximise the up while minimising the dazzle...
Pretty sure VW designed the van body and then put some clear plastic candle covers on the corners.
Who else could design a van where the water runs off the roof and straight into the open cab windows.
Despite trying several that promised the earth, I couldn't find a Halogen H4 bulb that made a significant difference, I think the design of the reflector is just poor.
It’s not really the same issue.
My van uses H4 and therefore a single reflector for both dipped and main beams with the H4 only able to illuminate either the dipped or main filament at any one time (can’t have both lit). The dipped filament is rated for 55w and the main for 60w. The DRL is...
Great post, thank you.
I've just put Nighteye LED replacement H4bulbs in - loads better!
Now my sidelight and fogs look really yellow :D does anyone have suggestions for LED versions? Looks like 501 capless and H11?
Also side note: if anyone is local to Abergavenny with VCDs would like to...
Hi, I've searched but couldn't find an answer.
I haven't been driving out late at night and with the nights drawing in, last night was darker it's the 1st time I've experienced since driving the T6.1 that the headlights dont seem to throw as much light/dipped beam ahead on the road. The light...
Trucks and cars drive around here like starships during winter and there is no limit to full beams so people can go nuts.
I`ll be back in a few months so could get any kits or have it installed there. Is transporter HQ the place to go for headlight upgrades or any other recommendations?
Cheers...
It is certainly true that many on here have converted over to H7 Headlamps perhaps this is not possible Norway due to legal regulations?
A couple of things that you could do. Have the headlight alignment checked. Ask the guy doing it to obviously stay legal but many people setting lights up I...
H4 headlight are coded so that dipped beam turns off when main beam is turned on. This is because the H4 bulb contains both dipped and main beam filaments. If they were both on at the same time for any duration, the bulb would get too hot and blow. I have not experience with Carista, but with...
Hi Dave. This thread is specifically for the T6, as the base headlights have H4bulbs and are as much use as a matchstick in a Force 9 gale.
The H7 headlights for the T6 were often standard on Shuttles and Caravelles, and are a significant upgrade over the H4s.
The T6.1 came with H7s as...
T6 Highline, 2018, H4 lights, rotary switch with the automatic setting.
So, the genesis of this issue was a long drive home in the fog on Sunday. Used both front and rear fog lights for the first time in ages and the lightbulb warning light came on the dash - assumed it was one of the fog light...
Bonjour
Pondering the question as per the title really.
I have some Vanstyle LED DRL headlights - I think they call them V4, but they are to all intents and purposes identical looking to the THQ V3 and others.
Like lots of people, I've put LED bulbs into the dipped and main beam - I'm using...
Just fitted these to my T6 mine has the H4bulbs, they are quite a bit brighter as you will see in the following pics, and just to advise when changing the drivers side remove the air filter box to save time and frustration, took only couple of minutes to take airbox off and then it's so easy to...
