Absolute b*****d to install, damn rubber seals are the work of the devil >:( ! The seals are still not in perfect but theyll do fine for now. I think they look great though, well worth the hard work, and my nails survived! PS we love yellow cars in my street! 8-)

They look nice!!

Im liking these lights alot, Ive been looking at them on the usa ebay for a while!! I guess you've changed the indicator bulbs to orange, does the tint effect the brightness!!

A picture of them on would be nice!! ;)

Think the LED ones are brighter than the normal bulbs :)

Although that's on my snow covers. Can see your point on the tinted ones :-?

Thanx guys, reguarding the bulbs, silly me didnt know the rear ones were clear!! So yes theyre still there. Sherbies got an appointment at the stealers on tuesday so while im there im gonna get them2sort the seals out and possibly change the bulbs if it dont cost the earth! Are clear indicators illegal? And btw yes, they are just as bright even tho theyre smoked! :-)

No - they have to flash orange - otherwise they may be confused for reverse lights and/or headlights. Get some chrome bulbs - will look ace then!
