Fitted the h7s today, much easier than I thought it would be. Removed all excess wiring within minutes, then it was just a straight switch.   Still waiting for the h1s to be delivered. Also going to have to wait until it's dark before i try them :/

Got the h1's delivered, then fitted them, tried them out a minute ago, much much better than the old ones, really need to work on realigning them now, as it's a lot more illuminated to the left than it is in the middle / Right.

the beam should illuminate the centre and left of the road, never the right or you'll blind oncoming traffic

Oh yeah, I realise that, but it is still far more illuminated to the left, and the Middle / right is  only very slightly illuminated
