I've got them on mine and they really cut the wind turbulence entering the cabin. They also let you open the window a bit when it's raining without getting drenched, which is always good.

Yup, got em on mine too, great in the hot weather for driving with window open, stops the turbulence a treat :D

Changed my led sidelight bulbs from eBay ones to some from Halfords and changed the reverse bulbs for led Halfords ones as well

Changed one to see if there was much difference

These are the reverse bulbs

http://www.halfords.com/motoring/bulbs- ... -bulbs-x-2

These are the sidelight bulbs

http://www.halfords.com/motoring/bulbs- ... -bulbs-x-2

Not cheap but if you have a trade card they're half price

I did a Picture with the headlights on as well but you couldn't tell much difference :lol:

I'm thinking of getting a pair of the led bulbs for the stop/tail light as well but I'm not sure of it's going to make the light look too pink instead of red

There's a merge in lane near me and I'm driving the speed limit of 30mph and I see a car trying to speed up to get cut in before me so I force them to brake or demolish the traffic island
