What are the stock HID bulbs on a MY04 BL Legacy/Liberty

Postby eddiewould » Sun Jun 28, 2015 6:06 pm

Hey,

Wondering if someone can tell me what brand/model/colour temperature are the stock HID bulbs (D2S) on a 2004 Legacy GT.B (JDM)?


Cheers,
Eddie

They would be Koito I believe (I pulled them out of my 5GEN, they were good!)

I replaced mine with Philips 81522. But anything D2S @ 4300K will do.

Does the one of the left look like a 4300k bulb that has colour-shifted due to age? Reckon a Philips 81522 will be similar?

Well I've ordered the Philips 81522 bulbs. Hopefully they're not too yellow.

Make sure you adjust the level so at eg 6m the cutoff is 1 1/2 below the level of the headlight. :)

Not sure, as phone pictures aren't the best, but it does look like your bulb has colour shifted.

I'd just get a pair of bulbs and be done with it. I may actually have a spare set of ebay ones somewhere.
