As title!
I'm looking to upgrade the dingy yellow angel eyes you get on the Pre-LCI's... they do look awesome at dusk, but completely invisible with any level of daylight around...
I believe there are 4 bulbs to replace? I'd ideally like a white with slight bluey tinge to it.
Could anyone help me out with what bulbs to go for?
Many thanks!

However, to the OP, you are really limited in your selection for pre-LCI halogens. You can go for simple bulb replacements, which still won't be visible much during the day, or you can attempt to create home grown style by attaching high powered LEDs like 5w CREE LEDs in each. That or you can do the Orions v2 or other CCFL angel eyes. The only thing is, it's obviously not PnP.

Believe me, I tried several other options before spending the money to do it right
and I am sooo happy with the results.
