I can't imagine many CS'ers voting 'no' tbh, we all have them. It's part of the initiation test.

I wouldn't say it was chavy at all, just cleans up the look of the car a bit.
They are just indicator bulbs that are silver but flash orange and are just as easy to fit as any other indicator bulb.
Yes, they are legal too.

Do halfrauds do them? Or any non internet based retailer?

 

[Needster]

Just whack it into eBay they'll come up cheap enough.

EDIT: Like these - http://www.powerbulbs.com/product_detail.asp?prod=69 (but I'm sure they'll be cheaper out there on the internetties.

How do you fit them, arent the headlight units sealed only to be opened by a renault wizard for a massive fee?

cant remember what pin type they are off hand but they should give you the right ones , if not you can always gently file the one pin off each they will fit anything and work fine thats what i did

 

[-J-]

Halfords do them if you must have them today, And its the Offset pins you need if i recall correctly.

Best way is take your current bulb out and take it into the shop with your to compare

Doesnt bother me, ill change over when a bulb goes.
