One of my DRL bulbs has gone (again!) thinking of trying the piaa instead of the polargs but can't seem to find any decent places to purchase.
Anyone got any links?
Think found them in the lighting section... have ordered some up anyway so hopefully be fine.

Yeah ball ache... got one of those bendy claw grabber things to try when I get back home, away with work atm.
Do have to take the bumper off soon anyway to change my grill as it's cracked at the bottom since I've had the car... wondering if I go de-badged or not on the front seems cheaper to do that than get an OEM replacement tho!

I'd hate to have to go back to standards now. I'd love to upgrade to Vauxhalls oem LEDs but I know my wiring would be different.

tucpal you retrofitted OEM or we just talking LEDs with the load resistors here?
I will probably look to go LED when I can be arsed... needs to be neat job though I'm a bit OCD... need to get round to re-doing some of the parking sensor install, knew I should have done that myself! Just busy with work and stuff atm so it's hard to find time.

Led and loads work much better
