steviehouse Best Non ST Car of the Year 2013/2014 Registered: 10/05/10 Posts: 11614 Loc: Jubail, Saudi Arabia	fitted last night and drove to work in the dark this morning so far I gotta say i'm not impressed old normal philips bulbs... "New" HOD bulbs... the field seems to have changed so much is it the same for those who fitted them? although I do have pre-facelift, but still seems strange that the field of light has changed so much _________________________ 2015 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1

smiiithy Registered: 19/02/11 Posts: 335 Loc: Northumberland, England	I think they look better to look at than to see from behind the wheel. Don't think mine seem as bad as the above pictures though. Will take some of my own to compare. _________________________ Mods: K&N, Milltek flexy, blue side stripes & mud flaps, rear tints, & a few styling mods
