I'm looking at gettin a set from here.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/200579708297?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Are these the same lights as the OP? One of my headlights actuators seems to have broken, so could be the ideal time to get some of these  :evilgrin:

I believe they are yes. A seller called Tuning Fanatics.

If you take to an MOT place i'm sure they would set them up the best way, I've just ordered a set of these hoping that they set up ok  :surprised:

They look excellent mate, +1 on the alignment, HID bulbs require slight adjustment over halogens, iirc it's something like 1.2 degrees!

um that beam patterns hideously wrong...

kickups on the far right and far left shouldnt really be that high...

open up the back cover of the headlight and look around where the bulb goes in and you should see some levers which adjust the shield so you can flatten the cut off better...
