I can report that the rear stop/tail lights defeat the purpose of the fog lights and only one reverse light is needed for ample visibility
All lights are very bright, while the tails are not "glare" bright which makes it even better. The reverse are bright enough to think it's the front of the vehicle
I'll post some pics tomorrow.
Thanks Steve, for the super quick service.

I'll be ordering a set of those reversing lamps from you shortly.
Just a little friendly feedback:
I've come to terms with paying £24.00 for a top notch pair of LED's and just attempted to place the order on your website but, when I got to the £8.95 delivery charge, I didn't go any further.
Update: By trial and error, I found that the last delivery option (rather than accepting the default) resulted in a £3.95 charge, which I can live with. Something that might be useful to others to know?2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
2015 - 2017: 2 x D4
2017 to date: FFRR SDV8
2023 to date: FL2 as a second car

I only changed the order last night of how these delivery options appear as it was apparent that some go straight to checkout without looking at the basket, therefore the default post option when used for a set of brake discs was £17 by weight when all courier options are cheaper. Sorry I can't be there to select the drop down boxes for everyone.
Multiple options are there because some are better for others for example to post to the Orkney's last week would be far cheaper than using a courier option.Paul Redding

I can see that now, but it's unusual to have so many delivery options and it might not be obvious to casual users as to why, especially when every option turned up £8.95 until the last one.
Might I respectfully suggest adding something to say something like: "Try more than one delivery option to select best value delivery"?2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2

Yes I understand but its not software that I write, so it's difficult to add in little things, although I will make the suggestion to the software company.
Lots of choices are there for your benefit not mine. For example a scuttle panel trim by Parcelforce is a standard parcel, to DHL it is oversize and carries a £16 oversize surcharge. A wheel bearing by post in England makes no sense at all given its weight but to the Isle of Man or Belfast post codes its the cheapest way of getting it there. Even our cheapest rate of £3.95 gets me some stick even though the account/contract price to me from the Post Office for this one is £3.15 cost, so I am left with 80p for a jiffy bag or box, sticky tape and a label. I really do put a lot of effort in to delivery rates and this is for every country in the world and every weight up to 100 kilos - All entered manually.
The easiest way, short term, is for me is to disallow parcels under 1 kilo going any route apart from post, this would resolve the issue you encountered but then today we sent something just under 1kilo DHL express overseas, it wanted to be there tomorrow so post would have been a bad option.
So as you see I cant keep everybody happy but I do try!Paul Redding

Stop/Tail bulbs
I have never liked the look of D4 lights and tried some LED stop/tail light bulbs before and although they looked nice they weren't as bright as the normal bulbs
These super bright Stop/Tail bulbs are unbelievably bright, you can see the glow in the hedge behind you when you are driving.There is absolutely no way anyone could say they didn't see you, got my wife to check the brake lights were working and it startled her
The T10 5630 are amazing too, fitted them to the 3 interior lights and the 4th(bought 2 pairs) to the driver puddle light. From outside it looks like one of those photo shoots where illuminate the inside of the car. Course I'd not realised there's about 50 more required with map lights,foot well,puddles,number plate
The one really noticeable thing is the lack of heat generation, the normal bulbs are almost too hot to handle after being on for a few minutes
I already had the reverse bulbs and they make the follow me reverse light really useful, I use them when shutting the gates, I hadn't noticed there is an even brighter set availableIID PRO
