Hi,
doe's any one no of a bulb replacement for the angel eyes on a halogen headlight unit that uses a 501 12v 5w capless bulb, i would like a whiter appearance than the yellow look, is there a LED bulb that will fit the bulb mount and not show up as a fault on the dash.

You can also do the Predator ICE. LED based upgrade module for your OEM headlights that swaps them out for an LED bulb.

THANKS GUY'S for your responce,
but i bought a set of LED light modules to find out that they would not fit on the standard halogen headlights only xenon one's,which i was not told at the time of purchase,in fact none of the companys that sell these do not mention that they will not fit halogen headlmaps.
The angel eyes in an halogen headlamp are dimly lit up by a capless 501 12v 5w bulb,which gives off a yellow light , where as for xenon thay have a much bigger light module.

The Umnitza versions do come in two versions- 3W and 5W depending on how bright you want them. We have only tested these on xenon equipped vehicles so I am not 100% sure if it will work with the halogen headlight angel eyes.

I dont' think many people UNDERSTAND this issue WE both have with the Angel Eyes....the yellow base Halogen oem lights that we have, we can't use Angel Bright or Umnitza or any of that stuff...i still have not figured out what to use for the whiter light! But most people here think we just need to get the Angel eye upgrade thing...which won't work with our system!
I have change my light bulbs to 12v 8w white and they are white now and not yellow.
there are 2 of these on each side and you can change them in just 10 min max.
At 1st I had the PIAA LED in them and they look good but they will burn out fast so I would say do not get LED for the agnel lights.
