Bulbs

I am wantin to upgrade my bulbs, what type r they, I take it they are main and dip on the same bulb??? Are they H4???

Also what about the foglights, I am going to get uprated ones aswell :D

not sure on type but it is just one bulb for dip and main, just bear in mind the fact most 5s are 20 years old and the wiring wasn't designed to take the current required for higher power rated bulbs. new head light units and new bulbs will probably be a better option, same with fogs.

Yeah their H4 mate. I use 100w jobbies. ;)

As Tricky Nicky says remember the wiring was designed to take a set current through it, i've seen a few wiring looms melt because of higher wattage bulbs and not on just 5's.

what wattage are the 5 set to use.? or should i ask what wattage would be ok to use in terms of headlamp bulbs.? mines currently fitted with piaa 12v 60/55w bulbs. im also using led sidelights and led indicator bulbs.
