Oh just another question on the head lamps.

The side lights, are they H4 as well? (Side lights being the dim lights)

Also, are these bulbs good?

I want to get a set of H4 bulbs for my jazz which are good but don't want to splash out loads.

I can also get them for cheaper than £24.99 :O. About £10-£15

These are made in Taiwan the Type R ones.
basically you get what you pay for.
If you want something bright and good, then you should go for a Japanese brand like
RAYBRIG, PIAA, POLARG, IPF, MTEC and BJ Union :p

Philips and Hella Halogen bulbs are good stuff in Europe.

By side lights do you mean the parkers. They are M4.

If your going to get whiter headlights then its a good idea to get parkers as well otherwise the parkers are still going to be yellowish when the headlights are on.

The reverse lights are M7. The interior lights M16 (I think???) except the boot light which is another M4.

Go with one of the made in Japan brands, they will last longer and you want good quality particularly for your headlights.

by side lights I mean the dim lights.....the angled lights that are turned on before the main beams are.

They parkers?

Parkers are T10 (M4 is a Polarg product reference for white T10)
