My bulbs are so retro they may as well be oil lamps... at least compared to the xenons on my CTR 
I'm not looking for a xenon conversion or anything like that, just some slightly whiter/cleaner light. I want to be legal, and I don't want them to be blue - as they look crap.
Apparently, the bulbs I need are:
Dipped: H1
Sidelight: W5W (501)
Main Beam: HB3(9005)
Can anybody recommend any brands? Just some nice crisp white light.

Ring Ultima 120% for the dipped / main - running them in the BMW. Brilliant bulbs.
Sidelights I still run the normal 501's tbh - have got LED's in the van but feel like a chav with them in there now lol.

Cheers Gents.
Rich, I was considering giving the full beam a miss since I rarely use it. In fact, the only time I use it is when trying to indicate left in my missus' Corsa D - it seems impossible to do without flashing somebody

Despite the advice from you two, I've gone and got some Phillips bulbs
A friend showed me his and they looked clean/white and not particularly chavvy so that'll do for me.
Got Dipped Beam, Sidelights (I'll see these in the flesh and decide yay/nay once they're in) and some silver indicators for £30 which I don't think is too bad, all from an eBay store.
