How to Change and Upgrade DRL / Side Light Bulbs P21 5W in a 2010 Peugeot RCZ HDI 

Thank you 😊 , More RCZ videos to follow in the new year! We can't wait ☺️

Hi and thanks for your comment ☺️, I think it's a case of each to their own 😃

Hi thanks so much for your comment 😊, ah it's my pleasure , thanks for the support 🙏🏻

Hey Bobby, thanks for you comment, loads more vids planned for the summer months 😊 Here's the link for the autobots badge www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Transformer-T5-Autobot-Car-Van-Badge-Gloss-Black-Brand-New-/302134533005?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0

Hi and thanks for your comment, the RCZ is pretty rare, only being made for 5 years, I never really liked the Peugeot badge and I've always loved transformers since a kid, so I thought why not add an element of mystery to the car as well as make my own off RCZ transformers edition, loads of people love it and ask what it is, even kids 😁

Thank you ☺️ The Peugeot badge uses both adhesive and clips , but the autobot badge I put on uses just adhesive 😊👍🏼

Thank you 😊, your right the prongs aren't the best 👍🏼

Thanks for your comment, not yet but it's on my to do list 😊, stay tuned ☺️

Hi and thanks for your kind comments 😌, the car will automatically switch between DRL and side lights when you turn your headlights on and off 😊. I'd love to upgrade our high and low beam to LED but unfortunately it's not legal in the UK 😭

Hi and thank you for your kind reply ☺️🙏🏼, they are DRL running lights / sidelights, I have since also upgraded the main and high beam too ☺️

4 years and 60k miles , so very good so far 😊, although if you go in to the diagnostic menu the car thinks the side lights are out 😁, nothing a resistor can't fix but other than that they are fantastic 🤩

Hi Leon thanks so much for your comment, yes you can, I've darkened my headlights and rear lights using film, it's a hard fidly job but well worth doing 😊

Hi 👋🏼, yes it will pass an MOT , they will only fail an MOT if you change the main on low beam bulbs from halogen to LED in reflective headlamps only. If your high and low beam have a projector lense then it will pass as it focuses the light output and not blind other drivers like reflective headlamps do , hope this helps ☺️

It's not the bulbs mate, it's the prongs below the bulbs which get squashed down too much, try prying the prongs up with a screwdriver before you do ☺️

Ok I’ll give it a go thanks

Hi thanks so much for your comment 😊, so yes fitting an LED/HID bulb straight in to a reflective headlight is an MOT failure as the pattern will dazzle on coming drivers however If you can fit them if your headlight already has a mini projector lens but only if the pattern is correct. The only way around it is to either fit projectors in to your reflective headlight units, or fit LED bulbs with built in mini projectors or If you buy a complete aftermarket headlamp with predicted projector lenses. You are however aloud to upgrade all other bulbs to LED apart from reflective high/low beams bulbs. My headlights are smoked from the outside, but wouldn't really recommend as aren't great at night even with uprated bulbs. I am currently saving for full aftermarket replacements with black internals, but a good stop gap all the same ☺️

@@CarFlix. Awesome, thanks for the time to reply 👍 no problem re the head lights. I was thinking of getting the inner light surround painted black by a body shop. But if there's a custom option that would be great. Could you kindly offer the link to the custom black light units as that would be fantastic. Many thanks 🙏

@@OA-Chat No problem at all, heres the link just select black and right hand drive ☺️ a.aliexpress.com/_mtPo6gI

@@CarFlix. Many thanks that's great 👍 a bit steep at over £500 but it looks good. I'll speak to the body shop and see what their cost would be, but it's a great back up option if the body shop is more expensive. I don't think I'd every had found it on Ali well found 👍 Good luck with yours and look forward to seeing the work your doing. 🤞

@@OA-Chat No problem at all 😊, glad I could help, keep me posted on your headlight situation, thanks for your support and all the best 👍🏼

Hi Joey 😊 unfortunately it's illegal in the UK to change your halogen low and high beam bulbs for LED/HID unless your car came with them from factory, hence why I wouldn't want anyone to get in trouble 🙂

Thank you 😊

Hi I got it from eBay. 🙂

Correct 🙂👌🏼

Hi, I had it bought for me, let me find out and hit you back 🙂

Ok thanks

Hi thanks for your comment, they don't sell them on Amazon anymore unfortunately 😭

Oh dear hope they rectify it for ya 🤞🏻

Full refund got the right 1ns elsewhere

Sorry to hear that, I've had no problems with these unit so far and they've been on a year now 😊

@@CarFlix. have you checked the wireiing conecter into the bulb,if you wires are not melted ill change mine,

@@ibaneze6666 yes all checked no melting 😊

🤣 I see your point, but every bonnet catch is in a slightly different location on different cars so some people struggle 🙂
