I'm planning on just marking on a wall where the current ones shine, and then adjusting the new ones to match. I'll take some pictures as well.

They took about thirty minutes to fit. I set them up as best I could, pointing them almost as low as they go to match my previous ones. When I get a proper wall to do it against, I'll sett the height correctly. Initial impressions are good - I actually had the wipacs with night breaker bulbs, and the LEDs are a lot clearer.  |

Cool!  How did you go with the removal of the tab things? I think I was just slow / over-careful / no good at DIY... lol I hope you like them when they're all set up correctly - the amount of light mine give off is almost distracting! I need to go out for a drive in really filthy weather, proper heavy rain and spray, to see how they perform. I've a feeling they will be very good. I can't work out if they give the car a 'happy' face or not when they're on, though  lol Now you just need to get some LED sidelights to match the colour temperature of the headlights  |

Haha I've already ordered LED sidelights.
I just filed a couple of mm from each tab until it was a snug fit, didn't take much at all.

Had a drive last night and checked out the reach on mine - on a dark urban road with no lights, they do an impressive job of lighting up the whole road as far as you could possibly need to see! I've got a couple of longer drives coming up in April, I think, so I'll see how they go on roads I'm unfamiliar with |
