Erm it pretty easy as you have the facelift ballast with the lights there slightly different can still be done with prefacelift ballast just wee bit more work involved. apart from that pretty straight forward have to take bumper off tho but a good improvement i think.

Iv have no idea where am going to put the plate i was thinking at the top of the mesh in middle but its going to restrict air flow to the radiator dont like the look of it being right at the front of bumper. I can put a square plate on the front but again not sure where. I can get a sticker plate made up legally with the reflective viynal which is what make it legal and put it on the lip ?

As above, if you have the ballast they go (near enough) straight in.

The connectors are different on the level adjust though so you lose that function unless you get the connectors and sort the wiring.

Good job doing it yourself and giving it a go but that colour is a million miles off.

As they are HID's do you not need the washer jets fitted onto it to pass MOT's nowadays? Just wondering. Otherwise looks awesome

Oh god...don't start saying things like that! Far too much discussion on the subject, despite the rules actually being quite clear.

I know you're only trying to help so

Its certainly not a million times off in the flesh, Actually extremely close, Which i was surprised at tbh.. Im getting a full respray for next summer so there will be a lot more DIY stuff over the winter.

Erm im not actually to sure about having water jets on headlights, They where not actually working anyways. I should of maybe checked before taking them off but if it comes to it some double sided sticky tape will do just fine..
