Now i have my refund, little saga.
Before i modified my cars headlights i bought those aftermarket headlights we see advertised, from a well known German supplier.
Also several other suppliers.
Come in black and also, as i bought, in chrome. I bought for what was described as "left hand traffic", right hand drive car.
Fitted to car, a good fit. Nice ice white light from the hex. angels.

But turns out for left hand drive beam pattern, as i discovered powered up..
So sent back.
They sent another set.
Yep, another left hand drive set.
Sent back and refund.
So if tempted to buy make sure you get for right hand drive car.

Quality of the chrome a bit rough in places, lots of bits of dust stuck under the chrome. 2nd set was better.
The inner lights are blank as on the standard car. But strangely when you look inside, there is inaccessible bulb holder.

If things had gone to plan would have cut access to this holder.
Cost i think a bit expensive compared to cost of other same brand lamps for other cars.
Brand is Sonar.
 
Very hard to get good picture as lights too bright and washout. You do lose the hex. shapes due to reflection in the chrome.

I did like them, seem more modern. The round halo's seem a bit old hat now.
Dip beam pattern was wrong way round, thought it might not pass mot, never mind other hassles from drivers.
