I have the Xenon headlights and foglights on my MCS and was wondering if anyone had changed the lamps of the parking lights so that they look the same brightness? Maybe halogen bulbs? The yellowy color of the 'normal' lamps just don't match!!

 

Philips Blue Vision bulbs are probably the closest halogen in terms of color that I have seen to the MINI/BMW xenons.

 

Thanks Dave. Do you know what type I would need - or would I need to take out the existing ones to get a model/type #?

 

I gather you're talking about the clear bulbs in the turn signal assembly. The clears are W5W wedge bulbs.

 

Check out http://www.optauto.com
They have all types of PIAA and Polarg bulbs that come close to matching the color of the factory Xenons.

 

i have the phillips blue vision on my mcs front

they are much brigher
i have them on my lexus too

but they DONT matcht the xenons..they are close..but you can still tell the diff

 

Ryan I forgot to ask you at the meet, where did you get the phillips bulbs and where they easy to install? Thanks
