Did you guys watch Rouge Traders last night where there were clamping down on Counterfeit Philips and Osram bulbs? Dam scary

@Roadrunner if Euro Car Parts are selling counterfeit bulbs then I'd be very surprised

Yes. That’s why I opted to get mine from autobulbsdirect. Lots on eBay at silly prices which make the alarm bells ring.

Finally got round to fitting them today, it took 30-40 minutes to do all of them. I found removing the air-filter lid really helped accessing the drivers side.

Hi Deaky ,,, cheers , that’s what I found .... I’m a bit new to T6 ... what is the extra bulb I need for the drl that’s not included in the kit ... many many thanks

 

[barnylondon]

Ahhhh are the sidelights the drl ???

 

[Deaky]

No, the sidelights are not the DRL's The DRL bulb is a P21W bulb. I would message Pauly. Maybe he can shed some light on it

No. DRLS are standalone, and completely extinguish when the lights are on.
