Hello guys just wondering if I can change my normal headlights bulb to day white Light bulb and would I need any mod for it to work plz and also would that avoid the warranty?
Thanks
-
Please explain what a "day white Light bulb" is...
-
Just be careful that the bulbs you use comply with uk's vehicle requirements otherwise pc plod may stop you

Ok, that's just a normal H7 headlight "xenon wannabe" bulb. No problems installing them and no problems regarding warranty.

Is that the proper white light plz ?
-
Asterix have you got any in mind about the headlights bulb plz I'm looking for one that look the same as the led day light that comes with the i30 car plz

To answer that question I think you need to know where on the Kelvin scale the DRL LED's are, and that isn't info I have got.

I would like my headlights to look like that white plz

Raid.
You are unlikely to get an exact match but probably be close enough (much closer than the originals) There are so many different temperatures of light each producing a slightly different shade.
As far as warranty is concerned, if you upgraded to say 100 watt globes (from 55 watt) and this caused something in the headlights to melt or cause a short in the wiring (for example) only the warranty on the headlights or anything related to the headlights/wiring would be effected. Not the total car warranty.
Same with any other mod. Only items pertaining to that mod effected under warranty.

Thanks a lot Dazzler

Maybe your lights need adjusting, Mandurah Hyundai can check that for you.

Raid - just so you're aware, Smitha10 has an FD i30 (the previous model) which uses an H1 bulb for the high beam.
Yours being a GD i30 only uses H7 bulbs for both the dipped beam and high beam. Wouldn't want you to get the wrong bulb. :lol:

Pretty simple, take the inspection cap off and you'll see the bulb connector there, it pulls straight out but is very tight "don't pull it by the wires"
