Dandan.... Not really too bright leh.... coz is 4300 still within the LTA standard.... but white light lah.... so inspection pass or not is see heng sway one lor.....

I wan to know something. After you all change the light bulb and after sealing it back, when attack by rain or car washing, do u all encounter water vapour inside? cos I wan to know how good is the sealing.

nah..... Change light bulb no need to open glass..... juz change by openin the bonnet....

So bright, always makes me do silly things when I see such lights tailgating me .

ya.. change H/L is from the bracket at the bonnet there.. just unscrew can take out already.

I think you should leave the fog lights yellow, yellow light shines further & better under heavy fog. Thats why rally cars all use yellow fog lights.

change to blue and red.. like police car =X

Whiter doesn't necessarily mean brighter, especially during foggy and heavy rain rain.

The lower the tempeature, the brighter and further the light beam is. For example, 4300k is brighter than 5000K.

So white better or yellow better?

So u install H7 ?
wad abt h1 ??

H7 is for normal beam, H1 is for high beam i install both

oso for each box it come with 2 small bulb. u can see at at the box photo, at the left side it indicated +2 wsw tats the small bulb used it for the parking light and carplate light

Yah! Like all the bloody m'sian cub-kia who ride between lanes, weave in and out of traffic, like to stay in your blind spots and with blown head-lights BUT change both their 'parking lights' with blinking red and blue; trying to gain right of way by impersonating a police patrol bike . Though I'd qualify by saying that not all of them are like that and some of the guilty ones are S'porean bikes as well.

But don't I wish I was Thunder Dome when I encounter these fellas!

BR,
w a y

then ur total damage is it 150++

Dear All,

Refer to below, the whiter (in Kelvin 'K') it gets, the lesser the brightness (in Lumens 'lm').



Think Philips are overpriced.... Osram bulbs are cheaper.

So what u guys mean is that the whiter it is, the distance it focus become lesser?

Focus? Wrong context.... should use the word 'range'.

But Forte look good on 4300K... not too white nor too yellow..... 5000K will be pure white (sunlight colour at high noon).

what is the stock light bulb Kelvin 'K' ??

shld be 2800 ? if not 3000 +
not much ..
afterall it's pure orange

Am wondering if it's cheaper to buy from outside...........



Anyway, it's not that difficult to change the bulb.

i got it done it malaysia...also philips crystal vision...tink after exchange rate abt 130+...cant remb the exact figure..

Dont understand why people choose Philips? It is better than any other brands? Think its overly priced and you are subsidising for their marketing hype only.

Guess cos its a gd brand(hearsay) and proven...theres alot of other brands out there...jus dat whether u wan to buy and use it anot...actually its up to individual one...

actually it depends on which inspection centre u go to, i must say that their inspections has a slight variable standard..

but what I would do if I were you, I would get a stock cheap light bulb and fix it on before going inspection. After inspection, fix it back on again its not difficult to fix, juz plug and play , few mins job nia heee

for me, i had encountered road blocks with my white light, no troubles or stopping at road blocks...so u judge from this heee

as long as u adjust the angle such that it does not blind other users, most likely u will be alright

In my past ride i was using 4.3k duno diamnd or crystal vision and went for inspection...they tell me my headlight fail bt in the end still sign the cert for me...guess its still ok with the inspection guy ba...duno leh

Hmmmm....... mine is 4300 one lor....... Auto bac sales staff was sayin 4300 is see heng sway one but 5000 confirm fail...... so we bought 4300, but then later one of my uncle told me as long as the surface of the bulb is tinted blue sure fail, then sian half liao lor, muz well buy 5000.......

haha i think the most feasible way is to get a stock cheap brandless light bulb, fixed it on when go for inspection, after that fix back the white light, its effortless..

but anyway ur car inspection is 3 years later, by then ur bulb should have blown liao haaa
