Really dislike those lights!  :sick:

Handy for you that those lights are a GBP 1025.00 option! The standard lights do not look like that.

I agree. The xenons are a €1550 option here in France and there was no way I could justify that kind of outlay just to look cool. I went for active chassis control and sunroof instead (for the same money).

Well done bud, and I suppose that is one way to look at it that you can get a few more extra's for the cost of the xenons. Enjoy :)

They're pointless in the UK because it rains all the time, so you can never open them. Less of an issue here in France  :wink:

Sunroof of pointless, Makes a real noise if u have it open above 45mph..... Also weakens shell.  Why have a sunroof if the car has an aircon unit?
 And its all about having something that little bit different, I imagen alot wont take the Xenons which will make mine that little bit more special.

I love the sunroof, lights the whole car up and lets the sun in. Just personal preference im guessing.
