dont forget that Depos come with a light reflector so that the light shines back into the reflective part.

light will be a lot dimmer without the deflectors, the bits that get painted black wont reflect the light anymore so the light needs to be reflected towards the bit that is still silver, hence the fitment of light reflectors on depos.

Finally fitted these today.. took 20 mins how come people have so much trouble? I was expecting the ball joints on adjusters be a ballache, come straight off No real need even undo the bumper on my car they came out a piece of piss and went in just as easy, well pleased lol.

Look good but I wanna choose some nice bulbs then get the lights properly aligned.

Serious recommendations doods And where to buy if possible.

I can get trade discount at halfords via a mates trade card if any in there are good... was reading that max power haynes shit and they're on about anything above a 60w/55 power can cause issues with burning wiring etc... not wanting take the risk

Anything recommended which is on ebay?

The lighting isn't too bad as it is but would like a nice ice white kinda look

maybe because my old ones were, well, old, but fitted them depos to mine months back and the light from them is miles better, didnt change the bulbs, but as i say probably just becuase the light unit is newer maybe.
