OK I've read all postings in this thread and still no wiser which one's to go for??
whats the best purchase to make the side lights and head lamps look like posh xenons?

Rowy

i went for Ring ones as they was the cheapest (to me)

Nightbreaker would have been my choice if the outlaw didn't work for Ring Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

aligning the light unit is one thing but apparently each individual bulb has its own light pattern so to do the job 100% you should get the lights re-aligned......... some how ever are just born lucky and it works right first time no fuss

the plan isn't to look like xenons just to improve headlight performance esp in the middle of rural N.yorks where there are no street lights. At work

No they are the right way round

The 2nd one been a whiter light and more defined edges (but it is in focus as well) Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

For anyone interested in Philips X-treme there are plenty on ebay at £19.94 a pair (item number: eBay Item No. 260345921532 as example)
I had mine posted out here and they arrived safe and sound.

The difference is obvious npinks. The only concern I have is the expected lifetime. I red quite a lot of dissapointments on the internet about this.

at £7 for 2 pairs i don't mind about life expectancy

Unfortunatly she can only purchase them for herself, or family and if she suddenly bought 10 pairs they would know she is buying cheap and selling them on and she loose he staff discount privledge

Which is why I can't offer them as a option to other members. I don't want to make it sound like I won't do a deal for members, as i would if i could  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

There should be no need to realign them

When the 10 mm bolts are replaced there is some scope for movement, not a huge amount, but enough to make a bit of difference. The plastic tab on the headlamp body becomes indented with shape of the bolt and there's a good chance that when replacing the bolts they will pick up on the indentation and return to their original position (and hence retain there original alignment).
