  • Xenon Bulbs on a ForFour?

    Okay so i'm looking to change the current bulbs on my ForFour to some of those Xenon gas Bulbs you see advertised everywhere just lately.

    Trouble is it's such a minefield out there with loads of different brands etc ...

    Does anyone have first hand experience of buying / fitting a set of the these Xenon gas bulbs? ( if so what brand & how do you rate them? )

    Before somebody suggests a full HID conversion i'll just say that I don't really wanna spend that kind of money.

    I have tried a few different types, but always come back to the main brands (Philips, Osram, etc.) as some of the "eBay specials" have been of dubious quality.

    Using Osram "cool blues" at the minute - no complaints!

        agreed, go to roadster technical problems and take a look at the HID thread, top stuff!

          After some careful thought & research I'm looking at buying a HID kit in the next week or two.

          Anyone in the cannock / wolves / walsall area who know how to fit them & want to earn some beer vouchers ?

            Well.... don't scrimp on the setup.

            In retrospect, I suppose "supercalafragalisticexpialadocious" wasn't a great "safe word..."

                Sorry to drag up the old thread but.. Kaizer, did you get the HIDs? Are they difficult to fit?! I think the lights on my forfour quite poor so am looking to upgrade!

                  Well I was all set to get them for my 1.5 not long ago but I suddenly got side tracked by the thought of saving all my spare pennies & upgrading to a Brabus, so at the moment no I never got around to getting them done.

                  However i'm still trying to sort out a deal to get my a brabus sometime in the next month or two & am planning to upgrade that to HID's as soon as possible so i'll let you know how I get on.

                      I always get what I want eventually so don't be suprised if you see a thread pop up at some point saying "Finally got my Brabus".

                      i'm getting a little scared as it's turning into a bit of an obsession now & I can't seem to stop talking about it & finding things to sell to put towards the cost.

                      I've gotta go out & get me a life ! LOL
