Aye, last year I was underneath and they are original but OK. Just bare metal no protection. MOT man said best get them protected.

Younger brother was ordered underneath with the waxoil, must have done a good job.

Negotiated the price of the Xenons down to £180. Boy am I tempted now but my Tax is due end of month

Just read my last reply and it seems like I want to keep the info a secret. The info was given to me Via PM and in my opinion they are just that Private Messages.

Here is the PM with the Accused names removed

Hi Dave
I don't have xenons but was able to make a direct comparison when I drove *****'* ZT with them on a dark and rainy night. Mine are projectors with the Phillips Brilliance bulbs....and the difference was absolutely minimal...I would not invest my own money in upgrading!

Hope that is clear to all
