Any need to disconnect the battery?

That could be smart, yes

I didn’t but don’t switch them on when you have it all apart.

What bulbs have you gone for?

What bulbs have you gone for?

Cheap ones, I've probably wasted my money but thought I'd try them out.

You could have taken all the risk out of the situation and gone to the main dealer - Sytner in Sheffield only wanted £248 to supply and fit a headlight bulb

Be keen to hear how you get on and what you think to the bulbs - I doing the same but went for the Osram double pack option from Amazon

Those osraam ones look similar to the ones I got. I may have gone with xenarc blue, but I forget as it was over a year ago. Much better than the cheap ones and old bulbs that were in there before.

Only precaution with changing bulbs is don’t touch the glass as you can put oil on them and burn the glass! Not sure if that’s a myth, but only touched the metal parts!
