Ducati Monster Forum

So I have been swapping out my stock bulbs several times recently
and wanted to get some feedback. I ordered a blue H6W LED bulb from
the UK and I just got it in and installed today. First off, it is a bit too
dark blue and doesn't match the blue of the LUKS H7 headlamp bulb.
Any thoughts on the blue H6W??  [thumbsup] or is it just plain gay??
I love the LUKS H7 headlamp, it is a nice subtle blueish color. I installed
the blue LUKS H1 in the brights pocket, but it is barely blue. According to
the LUKS guys, it is near impossible to get a a darker shade of blue
with an H1. Can anyone confirm or deny this comment? I would love
to find something, but each experiment in bulbs costs like $25, and I
end up with spares.

Thanks for any input!

It looks like the headlamp kinda washes the blue out so it looks fine. It seems a little too blue with just the parking light on though. I really like the headlamp and brights. Where did you get the LUKS from? I did a quick search and all i found was a site that won't load.

Their site seems not to be working right, but they are
just down the street from me. Really nice guys.
Tell them the guy with the Ducati sent ya. He will
know what to give you. If you can find an H1 that
matches the color of the H7 let me know, but theirs
is white as you see.

Cool, thanks. That was the site I found, it's working now. It looks like there a few different watts to choose from. Do you remember what watts yours are? If not I'll give them a call Monday to see if they know. Any chance you want to sell your spare H1 and H7?

I have 2 extra h1's, they gave me a few extra so I could find the bluest
color. I have an extra blue LED H6W as well. The H7 was fine out of
the box, or I am sure they would have given me a few of those as well.
It is kind of a wharehouse operation with a garage full of bulbs.
Keep in mind that the H1 is barely blue, not even close to the H7.
They are 12v, 55W. PM me if you want one.

So I ended up ordering the lights from the aceparts site. It came to less than $50 for all of them, shipped.

I'll post comparison pics once I get them.

BUMP

any update?

I ended up sticking with the original bulbs. The high and low beams didn't quite match and the the middle light was too blue to blend in with either of the other two. One of the bulbs didn't quite fit right and it seemed to really stick out to me. I'll see if I can find the pictures. I seen them just a couple months ago, I may have deleted them though.
