if they are standard mk3 headlights then no........ you need a h4 bulb not h7..
h4 bulbs have 3 terminals not 2

yeah, can they be used in the head lights tho. or are they just for fogs ?

 

[haighy]

i dont think they do h4 fogs so should be fine in headlights but the actual light beam might suffer,

You can't use them in headlights, there will be no beam pattern, I wouldn't use them in fogs either tbh.

Philips extreme all the way, I use leds eveyday in my little projects inc these ones listed, which are very cheap led's with not much in the way of lumens/light, nothing remotely enough for a headlight, think along the lines of a bright sidelight.
You can also do the relay mods to the lights, then run the permanent dip mod with a simple 3" bit of wire, this keeps the dip on even on main beam, and makes a HUGE difference for free, passes the mot and is LEGAL too.
