Default Bright eyes !!

decided to upgrade the bulbs in my octy vRS today with xenon gas bulbs (as the standard ones are pants). went to halfords to get some called "super brilliance" @ £12.99 each only to find that they are currently on a buy one get one free offer. bargain ! just thought i'd pass it on. they are a marked improvement on the standard ones too at relatively little cost.

Interested to see what you think of them, I found them better close up but probably worse for distance, Opted for rally bulbs in the end, not exactly legal but excellent distace vision
