Saab 9-3 strip sidelight 08 model... Which bulbs?

[00millie00]

Hi there I am a newbie so please try to go easy on me!

As it says in the title I have an 08 Saab 9-3, I was wanting to buy some new headlamp bulbs from halfords and want them to match the strip of led lights that runs across the top. Does anybody know what type of bulbs are used in the strip? TheY give off a white hue but my usual main headlamp is quite yellowy. I am hoping to go for xenon. Hope this post makes sense! (I am a woman as you can tell ha!)

Thanks in advance!

Hello and welcome to SS,

Do you mean the dipped beam or the sidelights?

Not sure if the models with Day light running lights have sidelights, well if they do go on ebay and look for LED sidelights bulb type is 501 the ones which Halfords do which I have in mine have to be filed to fit plastic rubbish.

Regarding the dipped/main beam fitment is H7, something bright white improving vision too would be the Osram nightbreakers can pick up a pair on ebay for around £20-£25 highly rated by other members on here without having to upgrade to HID's.

Just upgraded to HID's in mine the difference is great however since read an article stating from 2012 aftermarket HID's are an MOT failure :-(.
