The LED ones?

 

[mystery]

no

 

[tomhop]

no

Which one did you try?

 

[mick the builder]

Those LED bulbs may not be road legal - many are not and can fail the MoT. I've used the Wipac crystal lenses with nightbreaker type bulbs for years - they are as good as many modern cars, providing the wiring is up to scratch - I've also fitted the boomslang harness.
I feel your pain with the postal crapness - even on an Island as big as Ireland!

Me to. Postage and tax now are the problem. Been buying from an Irish source now as no difference in price.

The LED ones?

Xenon is a gas, LED is a completely different technology
You can get xenon filled filament bulbs or HID High Intensity Discharge, the 2 are not interchangeable
