just fitted and what an improvement. a lot brighter and shines further up the road. for £14 they are a must modification.

now for the bit im not happy with: they are a nice bright white bulb but now make the side lights look yellow and cheap. what are these led side light bulbs like. looking on ebay they seem to be brighter and a give off a really good white light. any body using them?

Are they just a simple swap job?

the night breakers are just a 'pull the old one out, put the new one in' job. the left hand one is a pain to get to without removing the battery but still only took 10 mins. the side lights are again pull the old out push the new in and are proberly easier then the main beam to fit as there are no clips holding them in

might give em a go. I have noticed that the orig ones are a bit dim compared to other motors.

my origional ones on the present and current 180 were crap. these are a big improvement and well worth it imho. its not just the brighter light to worry about its the safety side aswell

They look soooo much better than the OE ones.As you said they look too yellow after a light upgrade.
I have the Mtecs in now as the Philips were still too yellow

it looks like they fill the whole lens aswell rather than just a bit around the top

Halfords sell white side lights for much cheapness
