Kenny,

sorry to hear about the hassle with the lights, i was waiting on someone fitting these in the UK before i brought some. Im going to do some research, there must be a way of ordering these lights direct from the supplier, probably alot cheaper than they have been advertised at.

I have been doing abit of research on the internet and i think i have found the lights that were advertised by Dan, i have emailed the company off the link, to ask about cost and supplying to the UK. I have attached the link, but i think they look like the ones

Doc found a likely supplier in the Xenon thread in the DIY and Maintenance section near the end of the massively long thread. I emailed them as they were much much cheaper than the ones our disappearing friend advertised, and this was before his genie like appearance too. They only would send them out in batches of at least 10 in RHD.
Check that thread Paul, and also the lady's reply to me which was pure comedy.
