My mod is costing a lot more than £10.00.
I've ordered a new HR-v with led headlights. I wonder how good they will be. Has anyone ever seen any?

This should give you an idea on the new HRV's lights look very nice indeed.

Osram Silverstars delivered this morning and fitted, fitted the offside first and then compared the brightness with the nearside original before fitting that side, there was a noticeable increase in brilliance between the two even in daylight, have just come back from a drive this evening in the dark along local town and country roads and there is a marked and good improvement both in brilliance and increased beam penetration, all things considered a worthwhile modification for only £9.01. :)

I ordered mine the same day as you did and not received mine yet.  :(

But glad you're pleased with them. Can't wait to get mine now.

Unplug the cable, pull off the rubber boot, un clip the clippy thing that holds the bulb in place and pull the bulb out.

Wipe blood off of you hand where you managed to hit the sharp edge, and reverse the process.

The only difficult thing is you can not see what you are doing, and if you have hands like mine (the size of York Hams) its a bit tight. 

... and remember not to touch the glass envelope of the bulb

Yep I will second that, have some tissues ready.

It is tight and you have to do it all by feel unless you have eyes on stalks. :o
