For £500, Bilsteins (off the German site - have a search on here on what to do) or Gaz's are the way to go.
@Kyle 86 Is not far from you and he has the B14 kit on he's cup. Perhaps he can take you out in he's so you get a feel for them?
Wtf is that spoiler about?! Even the A-Team van would reject that.
I see this car at CSS. The pics never show these wheels there true colour but in the flesh the look really good and suit the car well. Looks Like you got a bargain with this one.
It'll cost you more in fuel going back to get the extension that you didn't buy in the first place rather than getting it on top of your case purchase ;)
Yes they are half the price of osrams. I had osrams in mine and changed to the mtec ones which I thought was better. Bare in mind though that you wont get that white look from these bulbs. If you want that then it'll have to be a HID kit I'd say.
These are much better than the standard candles.
I had theses ones:

I thought I read somewhere that the cosmos blue ones weren't legal but it doesn't mention it there so maybe they are.
Im just saying it can be done, but I'd remove it anyway. Like you say it's just laziness as its only 2 nuts!
Mine could be 13mm, I can't remomber. Its either one of thoses lol
It's certainly worth trying with your hands before you go out and buy something. It's free to try and you can actually wedge your hand behind the fuel rail guard (although it's only 2x 10mm nuts to remove it) and will only take you 5 mins to check.
Mtec bulbs or Osram Nightbreaker unlimited. The Mtec's are actually a better light output from my experience as I've had both. These will be the best option you got without going to HID's.
You'll want HB3/9005 bulbs.
Your just too heavy handed Dave. I've never had an issue doing it that way. They have been tight, but they have always come off.
I'm only a weed too ;)
Try getting it off by hand as they should be hand tight. Failing that you could use a long screwdriver and pierce it with and use it as a lever.
Old skool style!
