    Yeah just noticed Nightbreaker Plus, and Unlimited,
    just researched the difference,
    and just purchased the Unlimited ones...
    now the relay to sort, and figure out what Bulb actually goes in the centre,
    and then put the LED Strip on!

    Im hoping so as I get 2 free with those other Bulbs,
    couldnt for the life of me get it out earlier today though lol

    oh, if you know......
    you might of seen on here that I was thinking of changing the wiring so my lights are either both on or both off (until my MOT next year and i'll obv change it back for that...)

    BUT

    having the 2 Bulbs on at the same time, this wont cause any problems will it?
    as obviously its powering 1 at a time at the moment,
    so having 2 of then being powered... will this still work and be ok?
    I wont have any fuses blowing or the relay knackering up etc?

    Well its either 1 or the other.... the middle comes on anyway which is the small bulb,
    but the main 2 is either dipped or main? or high, whatever it is,
    obv only made for 1 or the other to come on, thats why I was wondering whether having all of them on would cause an issue as obv more power would be needed....
    will wait till I get these new Bulbs anyway and go from there :)

    I put the Osram Bulbs in and no clicking noise :)
    must of been the cheap ones being slightly higher voltage/watt,
    havent checked them in the night yet,
    the middle W5W bulb is yellow though,
    so going to look for a white one....
    and then get the LED strip in after i've sorted the mesh on the front.

    DONE!!!!!

    both Osram Bulbs in, both on at the same time or both off,
    the middle Bulb is yellowy though, Osram do a blue one which i'll get, £8 summin though!!!

    the middle Bulb is ALWAYS on, so is the LED strip behind the front plastic,
    but the 2 main big Bulbs are either both on or off which is all good :)
    as I hated having just 1, and people saying '1 of your lights are broke'

    Got photos on my main picture thread:
