ok spoke to my mate, the cheper ones use a different cree chips known as xv-d chips, the ones he got me use xv-d chips which are more expensive and shine brighter. anyway thats what he told me lol :-) not sure they cost 70 quid more but at least he is local to me so if something goes wrong its just easier :-)

The EBay ad says xb-d cree chips.

There is no XV-d [currently in the range] according to Cree's own website.

I don't think you'll ever get the oem look ofthe LCI

They work better with headlights on to give impression of LCI.

Why is there 4 LED's when only 2 are used to light the halo's up so does that equal 16w per side? :noexpression:

Ok I'll bring along a bottle of mineral water - yours for 71 pounds when it actually cost a quid LOL
70 quid of diesel gets you a long way and I just hate being made a mug of personally.
