Hi all,

As I'm new to this, I hope I've put this query in the right place!

Does anyone know how to change the angel lights from the dirty yellow colour to the cleaner white colour? The yellow colour just doesn't match the white of the xenons !! <_<

I've noticed that on Hella's website (link is : http://www.hella.com/produktion/HellaCOM/W...LIS_Upgrade.jsp ) that the latest Celis lights are white.

Therefore, I assume a white globe can be fitted to replace the ordinary standard globe that illuminates the fibre optics that light up the angel lights.

Sorry if this question has been answered before and if so, point me in the right direction! Otherwise, all help is appreciated! Thanks!!

Is it the parking lights bulb that powers the halo's

i cant check as I am away on Business

If it is you can just change it for the same size performance ( whiter ) bulb. ( such as OSRAM blue vision )

I know the headlights dont show a seperate bulb for the halo's on the parts system

Thanks for that.

I've attached a diagram from the dealer that is the globe&bracket combination.

Do you know the type of globe that is in there now, so as I can get a white Oram globe replacement?

Apparently a little bit of soldering is required to attach the globe to the bracket.

Thnaks again ..

I'm sorry - previous post is the Halogen light assembly.

Here is the Xexon (same as Oz posted) with part number.

Sorry again

Thanks Ultra,

I'm finally getting somewhere! But do you know what type of globe is actually INSIDE part number 63126929309?

Thanks again.
