:link: Fitted my I30 with LEDS. (https://i30ownersclub.com/forum/index.php?topic=26316.msg312997#msg312997)
I purchased a pair of "Osram 581 Diadem Chrome" indicator bulbs from eBay (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111378091573) to see how they squared up.
I have to say they're every bit as bright as the stock amber PY51W "581s" but look visibly superior:

Time to order another set for the front, though I'm a little hesitant about the lack of forwards light that would normally be thrown onto the existing extended focaliser that's in there...

They don't look like they even work.... :p

Shambles@ the Diadem bulbs behave in the same way as the standard bulbs so they work just the same only with a richer colour, that orange focaliser makes no difference as either way both style bulbs glow orange and throw light evenly in all directions.

Maybe I should have switched them on eh? :lol: :P

Even though it was in sunlight, I couldn't see much light being thrown forwards through the chrome cap, but a helluvalot was thrown sideways & backwards at the reflectors...

Mine show light evenly all over.

Nice one Craig :goodjob:
My next set should arrive tomorrow.
