If you ordered the ones on the first page (they are the main beam ones). You should get a set of "Blue Vision" sidelights (first turn on the light switch, I assume this is what you called dipped?) for free :)

Think he means the high beam (one you use for lanes) and the dipped on the first page.

yeh I bought the dipped ones with the free sidelights and then some main beam ones which are for the country lanes. Just wasn't sure whether 'H1' and 'H7' were the correct codes for both of these lights. They've been despatched now anyway so ill soon find out on monday!!

looking back now maybe the osram night breakers might have been better but these are the two that i've bought. hopefully the blue vision aren't TOO blue as I personally think it looks a bit naff. will post some pics when they're fitted. some pics were posted earlier on in the thread and they looked ace  :grin:

i have changed one headlight (the easy one, even though I was still seriously f**ked off  with the bar-steward afterwards) and cant seem to notice a difference atm. They look the same when the lights are on. Are they supposed to look different or just put more light ahead of you when driving?

Wots the best way of tackling the other one? remove the bumper and grill or battery?
