I blew one of my white/blueish globes in my driving lights not sure what brand they are as they came with the car.

and they arn't the standard ones.

so I need to get a new set.

anyone know of a good brand to go with (phillips) or a model number.

any info would be awsome.

also any good places to get them from?

Um im not sure what that other poster is on about but philips look pretty white to me.

Im using Raybrig's but theyre a little hard to get over here. Phillips are just as good and you get them from Autobarn. They are the blue tinted glass to achieve the white look and are overpriced but thats what you get i guess.

My brother has Philips Diamondvisions on his Lancer and they are pure white. They are expensive but he bought them when Autobarn had their occasional 20% off sale.

As for Raybrigs, a SAU sponsor sells them:

They are cheaper than the high end Philips bulbs.

i run Narva +50%'s, and they're excellent, and bloody good prices too

I agree with Azzura, the Plus 50 variety, particularly for high-beam and driving light applications are the way to go.

You will need to know your bulb type.

Great visibility, pretty good quality. Definately better than the Philips/Narva crap out there.

Unless MTEC bulbs bear an E mark, hence ADR compatibility with 51, I'd not touch them, if they do,- then fine.

I'm think polarg now....i was in the market for phillips diamond vision but they are quite blue and are meant to hinder your vision at night.

They are not blue at all.

Pure white.

Which Raybrig globes do you use?? I'm currently using Philips Vision Plus. They improved vision greatly but aren't nice and white like I wanted. I was wondering how the Raybrig's compare brightness wise to standard globes? Better or worse?

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
