H27 LED 881 and 880: white light in your fog lights
The H27 comes in two versions: 880 and 881. Depending on your car, this fitting is mainly used in fog lights or low-beam auxiliary lights. Here you will find an H27 LED set of 2 pieces that is intended for both 880 and 881, in daylight white 6000K, with 2000 lumens per lamp at 35W and active cooling (manufacturer's specification). The set is for a 12V socket.
What to pay attention to when choosing
-
880 or 881: both versions of the H27 fitting are covered by this set.
-
Light output: 2000 lumens per lamp, 4000 lumens per set in total.
-
Cooling: a fan keeps the LEDs at the right temperature, but does require some space behind the lamp.
-
12V: the set is for a 12V socket; it is not intended for a 24V vehicle.
Will it fit in your car?
First check which fitting you need: this is stated in your car's manual or on the base of the old lamp, where 880, 881 or H27 is often marked. An H27 LED lamp is usually longer at the back than a halogen lamp, due to the cooling and the fan. Therefore, check beforehand whether there is enough space behind the fog light and whether the cover still fits.
Laws and regulations
In the Netherlands, only LED retrofit lamps that are European approved for your vehicle are allowed in a halogen headlight. Therefore, check beforehand whether use in the headlight or fog light of your vehicle is allowed in the country where you drive.
Need a different fitting? Also check the H11 LED lamps, the H3 LED lamps or all LED car lighting.
