the money you've spent on bulbs, you probably could have bought some coilies!

Just the standard Light buddy, Get shot of the light that is there, and run 2 wires from there - Soooo much brighter and better!

Here's a quick couple of snaps of my rear LED Hella's.
Got them from VREDPOLO form ClubPolo.
Wanted them to complete the around LED look. Fronts, sides & now rears. Will get some better pics up soon, once the weather sorts it self out.

I'm not usually a fan, but they don't look too bad! You got any pics of them with the lights off?

Forgot to state that I had to alter the lights to get the correct bulbs working. Removed the red and clear filters and added a red bulb for my fog light. Still wont pass an MOT but at least the bulbs do the correct job. Also now my reverse light is twice as bright which helps having only one.
