So I've liked the look of these on quite a few Astra J's now and finally decided to order some.
Just need to order the lenses now and should be fitted next week

I'm in 2 minds before I fit now though, standard bulbs or leds?
Last time I fitted leds I found the standard bulbs were brighter, unless the leds I bought were crap lol..

You clip the lenses onto the surrounds and the surrounds stick to the quarter panels with the adhesive pads that's on the back of them.

Cheers pal.
I done the pads back in June just to tie me over a while to get to gatwick. I need to change discs now and the pads again.
Followed that vid to do the pads forgot it had the part numbers. Disc removal just as easy?

How do you align these? I bought a set of after market ones (as they were significantly cheaper than the OEM ones) but they don't fit to the body work properly and leave a nasty gap in the middle.

Just been looking at these on eBay as I had a set on my Astra H, I can't believe the price of them!!!!! I remember paying £34.99 a couple of years ago for genuine Vauxhall, now they're asking up to £160!!!!
