T10 have 2 types?

[Bieffe]

Are there 2 different socket types?
Are they eexchangeable?
I was told the one on the left is for conti while the right is for jap car.

[Fastfive1]

Nope!

The socket is the same.

However the difference is that the one which is meant for conti cars has some circuitry that prevents the warning lights from coming up on your dashboard.

I prefer using the T10s with CREE LEDs. Those are awesome!

The cree leds is good enough without the headlight on. 6000k

Basically both r the same. The one on the left is the newer technology with added resistor, diode for newer led either for longer life span or better brightness. For fuss free just get the one on the right will do.

Not true. They merely complement your car's HID. Their light throw can never be compared to a bulb specifically made for your low beam. Most low beam bulbs are 55W. What is a mere 5W bulb compared to a 55W bulb in terms of brightness?

 

Just a heads up, the bulb which you normally replace with T10s draws 5W. Going above 5W with the aftermarket T10 bulbs is likely to blow your fuse

There's such a thing called the search engine right?

Even this kind of thing must ask where to get bulbs.

Forum is for what? To share knowledge & info right?

Most of the led bulbs in the market is normal led which is not very bright.

And you have never asked any questions here?

Same goes for you....don't want to help just keep quiet.

Cos the one on the right is my original...then the bulb I got is the one on the left so wonder if it goes into the socket...scared I spoil my socket.

Thanks to all the ppl who contributed. I've tried the above bulbs both working. But the bulb on the left it's insulation gives some interference with the fit...until is pushed up once u plug in.

But it fits.
