budy is it worth it?? trust me ive been pulled over for defects numbers of times and honestly it costs to clear them each time plus if the cop decides to give u a fine as well on top. if you get defected you gotta get a blue sli done ant they are usually $80 but if ur willing to pay  bit extra there are a few dodgy blokes around that'll clear it without changing anything are $2 led blue light worth at least $80??

hey man
ive just bought some parkers off the guy who started this thread (http://www.ozliberty.com/home/index.php … 23&p=1) and i asked him about the bayonet style ones for you and he said he has some ($11 incl postage). the pins are offset in the bayonet but thats no dramas, my phantom blinkers are offset and they still work! would be easier if we could take off the whole headlight tho!
send him an email if your interested!

Are the LED (white)strips that people put in their headlights defectable? I'm talking about the ones similar to the Audi R8

I know what you mean and i really like them! im not sure if they're illegal though! its part of the audi design so i guess they're ok!
just dont put them under your car - i know thats illegal!
where were you thinkign of putting it?

i think i saw on ebay on the weekend a strip of 10LED lights. i got confused, thinking maybe you break them off when you need one?? but maybe they are strips of LED's like the audis?

Yes I agree they do look sweet. 

I was thinking of also mounting the LED's inside the headlamps like the R8. There is a perfect mounting point. However if "hav_lova" is correct about it being defectable then I won't install them since they are so noticable.

In answer to your other question you can get Led strips which you can trim. You can get all sorts, thin ones, waterproof ones, felxible ones, blue, white, red etc. But a question that you would want to ask if mounting inside the headlamp, will the quality last under the heat of the bulbs? Which LED brand is actually outstanding? it's not just a matter of changing the bulb when the strip melts!
