Hi. Got my teenage daughter to help with the photos, so hope they came out okay.

The headlight photos show how the extra length of the new units pushed out the blue plastic trim ahead of the lens.

One photo shows the difference in the length of the lens part of the unit. I simply swapped the old lenses onto the new reflectors & refitted them.

The second photo shows the modified unit installed. The plastic trim is sitting in correctly.

The units arrived very quickly. Think from the UK?

I ordered the units that PaddyB recommended earlier in the thread.

Just find out which type of bulb you have in your car. Halogens or Xenon etc.

Hope this helps.
