White bulbs for a w211???

[Chrishazle]

I should avoid this thread, had my S204 delivered back from service this evening and noticed how orange/yellow the sidelights are compared to the bright white of the Nightbreaker Ultimates in the dip beams, so may have to play with LED's again unless I can find some matching filament bulbs!

After buying white error free LEDs that aren't error free and buying Philips xenon white bulbs that are a little bit whiter than stock bulbs but still very yellow I'm getting a little fed up. I've read dozens of threads and can't seem to get an answer or a link (that still works) for a set of bulbs that will match the xenon lights on the E. I don't like the 2 tone lights white outers and yellow inners so what's the solution? What have you bought that works?

I thought this would be an easy first mod not so easy it seems :'(

I fitted these to my 323i and they matched the Xenon Colour almost perfectly and are very bright! I was going to fit them to the CLK until I realised that the Bulbs are different, like a mini offset Bayonet.

Halfords 501 W5W LED Car Bulbs x 2

And the Honda.....

Worth every penny and carry a 2 year warranty if my memory serves me correctly!

I've ordered up a set of number plate bulbs recommend by clk320x after the side lights he recommended where spot on just need a good set of error free h11 led fog lights and the lighting is done for now lol

With 4 on the front of the S204, not sure I'm prepared to pay £30 for something I seldom see (the Halfords bulbs linked by Mangoman above are £15/pair!)!!
