Hi everyone,

Finally made an account to this wonderful forum
I bought a 1.6 Nissan Pulsar DIG-T about 3 months ago, from what I can say, it's a great car and got plenty of horses haha!

I had a question about the high beam lights, I currently have halogens, has anyone had any experience in converting them to LEDs, currently have LED low beams which are great, but the set would be nice!

Also, what are people getting MPG wise with the 1.6, I'm getting around 30mpg... lol

Thanks!

Lovely looking 1.6 Dig-T!
30mpg isnt too bad.
My mate gets 35mpg in his 1.6 Dig-T but its all about how you drive them, some people have a heavier right foot than others!

As for doing the LED high beam conversion you can see a post I did on my build thread on here.

Installing is easy, simply unplug and remove your H9 halogen bulbs and install the LED bulb in its place and plug it into the factory wiring loom.
Check the new high beams work and you are done! Wait until nightfall and go for a drive to test them and see what you think.

I get 42mpg, mainly dual carriage and A roads

[bhavinpatel95]

Cheers Mrrichmond! Will look into that

@Metalmickey, yeah, I get around that much when on motorways, I live in quite an urban area so I guess 30mpg isn't bad at all!

Took the plunge and converted my halogens to brand spanking new LED's haha!


As recommended by Mrrichmond I got the one in the Amazon link!

Here's some pictures of the bulbs:

Here it is installed in the car. There's plenty of clearance so nothing to worry about!

Old Halogen

New LED

Comparison: LED on Left, Halogen on Right

Final Product!

Hope this helps anyone interested also! Thanks Mrrichmond for the recommendation mate

Welcome!

Loving the colour of your pulsar!

I get an average of 34mpg most of the time round town.
Worst mpg I've had was 8mpg (being naughty), and best was 58mpg (cruise on, 6th gear, 70mph)

Can't believe I missed this post! Glad to find a few 1.6T owners here, I struggled to buy a preowned one from my dealer in South London haha

But yeah, I'm starting to see an average of around 34mpg
Best I've got was about 53mpg, no traffic and driving at 30/40mpg! 8mpg!! Very naughty indeed haha! I love the look on BMW 1 Series owners when they get smoked by my Pulsar!

Looking to do a conversion like this soon myself, has anyone changed the reversing lights for brighter LED bulbs as I want to do that ? and the fog lights for DRL and cob lights as I think they will look good, also bhavinpatel95 what do the LED boot light strips look like and where did you fit the subwoofer ??
