Anyone got a picture of a set of lipsoids on a black tech 1? my front right outer headlight is steaming up seals gone and it would be cheaper to buy 2nd hand lipsoids than buying a new light from the stealers, but would they suit? i love lights on there at mo :cry:

could always re-seal the original lamp dude, now that is a cheap fix

elips on a tech ! !!!!!!!!!!!! wrongness dude, the quartz lamps you have @ the mo are right for the car, and give out more light than the elips imho, I can judge as I've had both long term, elips are poo in comparison, the beam just doesn't travel as far even with a bulb upgrade

flame suit time ???? I think not :twisted:

i had elipses for a year and non elipses for 6 months+

i know which i prefer and it aint the early lights.

the rag has the best lights me (or anyone else who has been in it at night) has seen on an e30 - non smiley elipsoids

ant, i agree with you the lights i have now look spot on for the tech 1, im not a big fan of lips but i just wanna go for the cheapest option, interested in re sealing them though.
