Surry, so don't worry about a personal demo but thanks :D. The 5000k will be the ones to go for though but CAN BUS not needed for this kit, as in no errors on the DIS? You would have said I guess.

If you want to be sure, unplug a bulb. It's a 2 min job.

I realise that thanks but I don't like taking the housing off unless I have to and I would have thought that someone on here reading this would have probably had a headlight bulb go and therefore would probably know but ok, will do when I have the inclination. No rush then ;).

I am pretty sure that only the dipped beams, tail lights and brake lights are tested. This would seem to be confirmed by the user manual.

They are just clipped on the back of the headlight housing at the moment. Hoping Ryan will come up with a few ideas.

How many times did you burn your thumb on the exhaust of that soldering iron?

You have to be careful where the exhaust vent on the tip is pointing as I have crisped a few fingers/fingernails (they hurt like an absolute beatch!). Love that soldering iron but it eats tips! You don't want to see the smashed up broken tip on there currently.

LOL. You are not your soldering iron, a gas soldering iron ends up owning you.

That old saying, how you always hurt the one you love, well, it works both ways.

@Footlong: get a Weller WSD 81 or similar. You will never look back and your gas soldering iron will be relegated to where it belongs... in your S&M drawer.
