Hi there. Though I've been an ardent follower of this forum for some time now, this is my first post.

I was on the look out for a bulb upgrade in my fluidic verna and yesterday i came across this website http://www.autospark.eu/. Their product catalogue looks pretty impressive and the rates are quite reasonable (considering they operate from Greece). Has any of the forum members used their services before?

Hi all,
It is nice to see everybody exchange tips and experiences w.r.t. improving the 'illumination-ability' of their cars. I am on my Stock lights (Vista TDi) so i do not even have my two cents too add to this thread regarding upgrades.
I only have one request to all here since you will have very powerful lights.

Kindly Dip your lights while negotiating left hand turns so that you do not blind drivers in the oncoming lane. I always make it a point to do so and i know the oncoming drivers will surely be glad at the little gesture. I know you will understand what i am talking about as all of you have been in the receiving end of a blinding stab in the eyes.

Also dont make it a show of strength when an oncoming driver bears down on you with Headlight blazing. Dip once, twice and if he does not relent, Blast the guy off the road with that laser gun tucked under the hood! Kidding... Just give him a jab of what your lights are capable of. 90% of the drivers learn only by this method and they meekly dip their lights. Happy driving and all the best in lighting up our roads Brightly but Sensibly!

Regarding the wattage part, LEDs do not consume much power. So, the difference in the electrical load will not be much compared to whats already present in your car.

I have an Ikon which i bought it used. The previous owner had replaced both the headlights as well as added 130/100W Osram bulbs.

Since i decided that it is an overkill, i replaced it with 100/90W Philips rally. While replacing, i found out that both the sides had a relay and a fuse(forgot to note the relay wattage).

Any ideas why the previous owner went for this setup(instead of a single relay)?

My another query is that, the electrician said that Bosch 100/90W bulbs are not efficient as they generate more heat than Philips rally. But the beam is more yellowish from Bosch when compared to Philips.

So will the Bosch be better while driving through fog/rain?

I don't think, It will be much of an issue. LED's in general don't consume much power.

You can go ahead

Cheers,
Sameer

AFAIK, the relay kits comes this way. When I upgraded my headlamps early this year, I had a look at a few relay kits, and they all had two relays, one for each end. I bought a Lumax kit, and therefore even my current setup is the same as you mentioned.

Overall, the brightness has definitely gone up significantly and the light color works well with an appropriately colored headlamp. However, I think it is priced on the higher, higher side. Dont remember the exact price but can dig it out, if required.

Yup, I was looking at the Ultinon bulbs. The price I saw them at was around Rs 1000 for a pair. How much did you pay for them ?

Hey Gurus,

I am looking for an auxiliary lights for my swift. Can you guys please suggest some good set of lights? Hella, Neolite and any specific model in with these companies?

I drive during nights and i need a really good set of lights. I can stretch my budget upto 10-15K. Have heard of Rallye 8000. Is it still available? How about others in the Rallye series?

Let me know

Gurus, need some help.

I never felt the requirement to upgrade the lights in my palio. Now a days, i am facing a lot of problem as almost all the cars are having high wattage lights. The beauty of Hyderabadi's is that, one in a hundred switches to low beam. rest of all drive all the way in high beam.

Now, its time to upgrade my car lights

I tried couple of car decors shops in hyderabad and no one is really intrested to get my lights upgraded.
Most of them do not have the stuff about which we discuss. They have only Philips 60/55 H4 in stock. They do not have H1 and H7s in stock esp the 100/90 ones.

I seriously doubt the genuinity of the stuff available in these shops too.

Please advice on what to pick and who would be the best choice to get this work done. I stay near LB nagar. Thanks

Mate me replaced my Linea's 55W stock bulbs with Philips Rally 100W (H1) and 80W(H7). Try calling bigger dealers and am sure they would have it (despite H4 being much more popular).

Could you please redirect me to some good shops, who do this?

I tried visiting Car tracks in Himayat Nagar. The shop keeper is least interested in getting this work done.

Regarding the lights, he has shown a small Philips box, 2X3 Inches box, which had the light. I am sure that philips never sends their products in such pathetic packing. so they must be fake.

I want to have genuine stuff in my car. I do not want to repent on a highway with blown headlights.

Mate would have loved to help you but me is in Pune. The boxes for these lights are pretty small, lights work
Also they give you the originals back to you to keep in spare.
