Unfortunately Mrs DSL would notice the difference and thinks the halogens on the present S are better than the Xenons on our old HSE. It's called the path of least resistance!
You need to build up some layers of cling-film or tape on the lights until Mrs DSL complains the car lights are playing up then you can "fix" it.

Can you help with the price for a Yellow Top battery Nick....?
Or perhaps the LR battery bracket for the empty side?

Signed up as interested.
Are they really that good? A significant difference over the standard unit?

The Lights? Yes, most definately. I've driven both & the Xenons are so much clearer. Esp on full Beam Bodsys Brake Bible

Cool, 5 takers so we'll get the ball rolling for the first batch
Can you send your payment to Martin using one of the methods detailed on the Donate page (I know it's the easy method by please try not paying by PayPal due to their extortionate charges, if at all possible use another method) and change your signup to Paid once you've done so. Once Martin has confirmed he's received the payments I'll get the lights ordered, I'll find out tomorrow how long they'll take
Then we need to work out how to get them you. bigcarpchaser, Craig & Kevin should be easy enough via the usual delivery network (especially as Gary has offered to collect them ). yawlboy & jkp are obviously a bit further afield, are you happy to wait until we can get them to you via delivery network or would you like me to get quotes for postage (they're not particularly heavy but do come in big boxes)? If so can you PM me your addressesThe End

Paid. D3 network would be fine, but I'll send a pm of me address to see what postage would be.
