Did they look well? Like the look of those ones in the link I uploaded but its probably photoshopped, if the look similar and error free ill just get the ones you suggested - fit my car ok? Pre fl

 

[Marshall]

Only ordered them yesterday so will let you know when they arrive.
Will fit your car though.

Matt the ones in your link aren't photoshopped I use them in my R but I got mine through work not off the bay and have no problem with errors on the dash I have just got some more for the car as I think the one was on its way out but still have a good one I can send you to try in your car if you message me your address.

Mine are identical to those Kev and no errors - they were on my first R and got put in the current car. Say ten months and no issues.

No probs fella I will post you both of them they might work fine for you but my dash kept coming on now and again saying that the one side had gone but it was still working so I think one of the little diodes was starting to give in as I had them a while they look 100 times better than the crappy standard bulbs. Let me know how you get on.

 

[Benzy]

How white r they? Will they suit 6k hid headlights?

 

[Marshall]

They work with no errors and are nice and bright.
Not a blue light either just a nice crisp white.
Here's a pic from in my garage just now so not the greatest pic but you get the idea

Looks well!

Learned a few things today

A) Gloss black pillars are not my cup of tea. Wrapped and unwrapped
B) wrapping a gauge pod is a right pain. And I failed.
C) getting a wire from the engine bay to the inside is more challenging than solving a Rubik's cube. Failed in this as well.

And my biggest lesson of the day:
Razor blades are sharp!!

 

[Marshall]

Getting a wire through is very easy if you use the passenger side but it does mean removing the battery to access the grommet.
This comes out just behind the interior fan motor


I take it you cut yourself?

I removed the battery, found the big grommet with the nipples on it to cut off. I sliced one off (and half my finger), and figured that was that. Poked a screwdriver through on the engine side.
Found the grommet in the passenger side, but no sign of the screwdriver.
Gave up at that point.

So I think I was 99% there. I can't get the boost tube through on the engine side, so I wanted to push it through on the passenger footwell side. Doesn't help that the sound deadening is in the way and really tough to shift

Ordered a blueflame TBE for my K1 and booked it in for a stage 2 map, can't wait!!

 

[Pedestrian]

So my car is in the garage for two things;

1) Horrible juddering coming from the front of the car, when doing 60mph, not braking and braking. Apparently a stone in the caliper caused this but I don't believe that until I drive it myself.

2) I'm a wiper down as the passenger side motor just stopped working, and the garage have been sent the wrong part so have to wait for that now.

Awesome...
