What would be the problem with MOTs? Is it because they would be too bright for normal road driving?

Simple to fit, with small enough hands

NO problems in 3 years with mine

Some of these guys sell them:

they exceed the maximum permitted by law which is either 55 or 60 watt (can't remember). That hasn't stopped me, as we don't have an MOT here anyway

I've had 2 MOTs' so far with the Powerbulbs installed and had no issues - it'll take about 10-15 mins to fit.

I bought some 100W Rallye bulbs a while back and have never fitted them. Can't get my hands in to do it myself, and the dealer claims he'll have to remove the front bumper to do it, which I've turned down on cost grounds.

Presumably the only answer is to find a willing volunteer with small hands ...

Shiskine, easiest way is to remove the front wheel's and then pop the arch liner stud's out and then fold the liner back, load's of access.
