I remember when I first got them fitted; I was over the moon. It’s so subtle but cleans up the rear end so much. The cost was a bit ridiculous to be honest but c’est la vie. I’m sure all in from the US it was somewhere in the region of £250 once converted from US to GBP. The units were about £60 each, shipping was £70, and then import duty was a further £60. |
OK. So just the standard bulbs that you had in your EU/UK lenses?
So I just need to find the lenses, bolt them in, and then deal with any MOT inspectors / other drivers who don't think that they are doing a sufficiently legal job at indicating.
Brilliant!
Thanks
