Just a general post to give my opinion of the below linked lights...
If anyone is looking to get some of these lights i would strongly recommend ebay. I picked up the lights attached quite cheaply and they are excellent quality. They do use H1 bulbs however but they come supplied.
The standard side light bulbs dont fit unless you strip the cables in the car. This is hard work so i cut off the sidelight connector and wired the angel eyes into the sidelight wires. I then wired the proper sidelights into the headlamp. The angel eyes are legal sidelights and so you can avoid damging you light wiring loom by doing this.

Get the rimstyle ones there the better ones the above link shows the now not wanted single ring lights at £130 and in this case you get what you pay for.

Fit my car fine.
And if the beam was too 'narrow' then they were aligned wrong. I work for a vaux garage and our MOT tester thought they were great lights and a huge improvement over the standard clusters.

I like them, prefere mine to the other style because of the indicator setup. The others just look like a normal set of clusters with some angel eyes put in.
Whereas mine are a totally new cluster inside. Just need some silvertec indicator bulbs.

The day these become a chav accessory is the day i take mine out!
Might just be the dodgy wiring in my car thats making the sidelights not fit, I know it was re-wired once after a "pre-owner" crash.
But got it all working now, silvatech bulbs are definately better though!
