      Does this have LED side marker lights ? If so looks good don't you think ?

          Oh yeah, shocking are the standard items ! Without wishing to sound like a chav but i would like to change the side markers and reg plate bulb for LEDs, just freshen it up a bit. Anyone know if its easy done ?

          Guess it would then need some xenon head light units too....

            yeah im pretty sure you just swap the bulbs (straight swap) for the markers

            the headlights are a bit different depending on what you wanna do
            you can get brighter bulbs, but they wont be anything special

            youll have to get a HID conversion kit, or buy some aftermarket headlights (or make some from E46 headlights!!!)

              The one I was buying was a grand. Not much difference in price.

                I did this and while it does change the 'piss yellow' (lol @ Indy) output, because LEDs are directional light, they aren't all that bright from head-on.
                Not actually in the least bit fat

                  Were they a straight swap over Tony?

                  Which ones did you buy?

                  Well they are kind of pointless anyway! As standard they dont give much light off and not safe to drive on in any form of dark - I very rarely have them on on their own anyway.

                    I just changed the bulbs to LED bulbs mate, so yes, a straight swap and the light covers are removed very easily so 2 minute job for both sides. I think they were the same as these:

                    The lights shouldn't be pointless though - I did start looking for alternatives but didn't want to end up with something that looked like an Audi wannabe with stuck-on LED strips

                      Exactly my concern, i want it to look as OE as possible or won't do it. Did you do the reg plate bulb as well ?

                      They shouldn't be pointless no but they are, nothing more than marker lights, can't be called side lights !

                            Well after waiting all day Friday for the bloke to get back to me I decided to give him call and see if the car had sold, unfortunately he never answered my call so I sent a text just asking if he could let me know if the car had gone, I’ve still not had a reply to that yet. I decided to leave it over the weekend to see if it was removed from ebay (to get a idea if it had sold or not) but its still there, so on Sunday my dad rang off another number and the bloke answered and said the car was still for sale and if he rang back on Monday evening he would take our email address and send us some photos, we tried again last night but no answer again :(

                            We decided to give it one last try at dinner today and my dad eventually got hold of the bloke’s brother, who told us to ring back this evening which we did to get no answer again.

                            I am guessing the bloke just doesn’t want to sell the coupe :(
