Any issues identified (with the bulbs) since the review?  Please post a link from where to get these from.

Cheers!

Just bought some, so lets hope that I'm impressed! My current sidelights have no yellow whatsoever in them, in fact they are more bluey than white (not chavvy though), so I hope that these don't even have a hint of yellow !!

Yeah they are easy! The old ones will require a mighty pull to get out though!!!!! You will also probably scrape your knuckles as you do this!!!

What are the sidelights like to get out on the Xenons? Aren't they right at the bottom of the back of the headlight unit?  :confused:

Any suggestions of what I need to do for a similar conversion for the fog lights?

there not too bad to get out there behind the smallest rubber cap on the back of the lights (xenons),  you have to pull them inwards to the middle of the car as there pointing towards the wing.  they can require a very good tug  :happy2:

Mine arrived today and Im very impressed!  :happy2:

I already had the phillips ice blue W5W's in and these made them look very Orange!  :confused: Although not as bright as regular W5W's they are indeed very white and compliment the Xenon's really well!  :happy2:
