Hi guys,
I've been looking to upgrade my head/fog/side lights on my ST
Found these on eBay which is the full set
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/55w-High-Low-F...b#ht_2489wt_922
Will these do the job?

Be prepared for a fight with them, two of us trying to do a mk7 headlight the other day had to give in and take it down to a garage! Hopefully mk6 are a bit better

the MK7 you undo the screws and just pull it hard

the MK6 is undo the screws pull it forward then twist clockwise and then it will come out

Yeah blue are illegal but these arnt actually blue, they emit a "superwhite" light but I'll have to wait and see when they arrive I guess
