When i fitted my hids, the clip that holds the bulb in needs to be cut, so when i needed to fit a normal bulb for the mot i had to make up a new clip.. bit of old clay...lol can take the weight of the headlamp when holding the bulb...

Flat a bit on the bonnet too, as a bird shat on it, it was on there 3hours max and it had made burn marks, polished that up looks sexy.
Can clean it and put the front back together tomoz.
Made a new scuttle cover too, which came out nice. and fitted my png sticker too, hope afew of you saw it at the show, and maybe took pics..

Fronts have about 2-3inch more thread to go down..which is good ;)
Rears have about 2inch more too... So they can and will both go lower.
