Had another look at the lights tonight and it seems that ill have to replace the fitted clear fog light with a red 21 watt bulb, which will replace the dull 16watt fitted bulb, as for the reverse light im thinking it maybe a led that fitted as i cant find a bulb inside the fitting? Ive temporarily painted the fog light with red paint, and ive ordered a red bulb from the bay, these lights have definetaly been one of my best purchases so far!
Just wanted to let you guys who are thinking of getting these, that they are great quality and fit etc. hth

Cal
Rear right hand fog works, but needs a brighter red bulb fitted, reverse light on left works, but maybe an led thats fitted? Dont have more pix...

Mine should arrive tomorrow, just got me a bit worried that all your bulbs arnt sorted yet...or well, im sure we will get there.

more pics please

I went for these ones:







They were from the guy on ebay who people thought sounded dodgy as he wanted payment via bank transfer, but I have bought off him in the oast and he is a trustworthy guy. He could only do bank transfer at the time as he was having issues with paypal but it is all sorted now.

Anyway, I'm really pleased with the lights and they look ace  :cool:

They look great.
Did they need coding or are they plug and play?
Are they RHD lamps ie reverse light on the left and fog on the right?
How much did they cost including delivery?
Thanks

They are plug and play no coding needed and no error messages  :smiley:

They are RHD, Reverse light is indeed on left and fog on the right  :cool:

Delivery was free and they were £280 and he can get more of them.

They do look identical to OEM in my humble opinion  :smiley:

Can you please post the link to these?
I know its probably earlier in this thread but there's a few links and I wouldn't want to order the wrong ones.
Cheers
