You've been (de-) Tango'd!

At my last MOT, he winged that my rear indicators are de-laminating, so I thought I shall buy some new ones before my service this week.

Spot the difference!!!

Standard

Philips SilverVision added.

They flash orange, I think they are slightly less intense than standard ones (as expected), but perfectly OK in bright sunlight, also are E-marked so should be perfectly legal.

Bought from PowerBulbs site for £11.78 (including 10% discount and free delivery). Brilliant service from them, ordered on Tuesday at 1.45 pm and they arrived the next morning with the normal post.

I only bought 1 pair, as I think the orange bulbs don't look too bad in the rear reflectors. I just swapped the bulbs around (old fronts to back).

That's quite alot better, I like the slightly blue tinted ones you see on some cars

[grr666]

I think the bluey shiny ones are called Diadems...

Could be wrong though...

I used generic ABD silver indicator bulbs, front and rear.

They were cheap as chips and although I had to file a nipple off of each to make them fit,

they just passed an MOT fine and I've got to say that they're completely silver!!

Not just that wishy washy orangey silver like the expensive philips items.

You'll find them here--------> http://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/382-Silver-Indicators-pair.html

I like them and at that price who can argue

[Wardy]

Yep I've got Osram Diadems all-round. I prefer the slightly blue tint to them and think they actually flash brighter than the OEM ones too.

Anything's better than std tango though Jim, so it's a from me...

The indicator bulbs i had in my Puma powered fiesta, completely changed the look of the car imo. Well worth it

[Jim H]

I don't normally bother with styling mods on cars, but I fancied these. I have now done 2 of the 3 styling things, Aero front wipers and Silver indicators. The Osrams are slightly cheaper (£2 less) but looking on other forums, they have a blue tint when off, which I did not want. If I had an SE then I may have gone with the Osrams.

Next is an Aluminium Tax disc things that I've seen on fleBay. I'll get one soon as I need a new windscreen.

I have the Silvervision fitted on the front and rear

[anewman]

The Halfords version of these are made by Osram so I suspect they're Osram Diadems. Good price with Halfords trade card.

I have spotted the difference

The ones shown are FRONT indicators

I think this is a cracking Mod which gives really good results & transforms the car every time

Good job there

The Silvervision's made a big difference on my bi-xenon retrofit.

I have the Phillips bulbs - my impression is that they're quite a bit brighter than the standard orange bulbs.
