Of course they were bloody apologetic! If you'd have crashed and seriously injured yourself, or worse, they'd be in so much ****!!! You are very lucky that nothing really bad happened!

ano ano but at least it is all sorted now, will be moving onto the footwell lights light you did, need to follow your step by step. Did you ever source those red interior lights ?

Got some photos of interior calibers and lights will put up night photos of the lights once it's dark

Thank for those. Sigh of relief as my painted calipers don't look to different to OE. Love the seatbelt a though. Very jealous.

Any chance of some night time pictures of the headlights/sidelights? :)

Yea sorry I didn't get a chance last night passed out at half nine hahaha will post some before and after photos for you later yea I love the seatbelts so glad I went for them only added on an extra £8 a month for those and the callipers. I didn't care about the red calibers as much because I would have painted them but you couldn't get the seatbelts without them

Wow, that's what I want! That's what a modern car should look like - I hate the yellow of the standard bulbs. What Osram sidelights did you go for, they are seriously bright!? LED? Which K rating?

I ended up going for some Philips Diamond Vision dipped and some Philips 6000k side lights.

What fog lights bulbs did you go for too, they are next on my list but I can't confirm if they are H8 or H11 :cry:

Massive difference in my opinion really love how nice it looks at night.

I tried to do the number plate lights thinking they were 42mm but like the misses says if it doesn't fit don't keep pushing it in, well it popped in eventually but the fuse popped out along with it hahaha so had to fix that and have decided to leave the number plate alone

Ignore my manly gloves seen in the rear view mirror ( those bulbs get hot )
