    just the front ones that are in the head lights. I wasnt that fussy for changing the others.
    Im going to get the clear bulbs for Sarah's headlights as the blue would look a bit out of place on her car.
    Its crazy that my S with its 'clear lights' and Sarah's cooper with the 'clear lights' option still look orange. I wish BMW would fit them with decent bulbs.

    how did you get the side repeaters out Fi, I've wrestled with a few and can't seem to get them out (I even read the manual)

    well you open the bonnet. Then you grip the whole of the side repeater grill thingy slide it towards the front of the car and it clips out. You can then get into the back of the light holder and change the bulb.

    I got silver bulbs from LOHEN for the front indicator/side lights. They freshen up the look of the car at the front and take away the so called 'Fried Egg Effect' £15 i think they were.

    The blue indicator bulbs for the side are only £2 from motorworld & £6 for the rest

    Re-did our puddle lights - very cool in the dark!! I'm red in the puddles (often here!) and red footwells. Super smart with the grey outside!

    He's gone for blue puddle and feet - very nice wi electric blue!! Dead easy too!!! Everyone should do it!!! T'was our first Mini Mods - awwwww. Then quickly came stereo and body bits!!!

    Well worth it - got bulbs outta Motac in Stirling - were a general fitment. Just interior ones to go, but no idea how to access the smelly things!!!
