The curved ones look just the same as normal lights do

If you'd like a photo I can trudge through the weeds and grab a photo of the clubby tomorrow

Or a really dark one tonight!


I'm scared of the dark.

It's been that bloomin' long since I've had my mini together that I'll be jiggered if I can remember how they look. A photo for comparisons sake would be ace. I'd be forever indebted to you and your curved headlights.

You're a gentleman and a scholar!

Thanks Pete. I'll wait patiently for some other awesome person to post up picks of the curved glass variety.

P.S. Sweet as number plate. I want mine to look like that!


Just eat some mushrooms from the creek. That's how I did it. Funky ay :-)
Did that for another place. You guys are ok. But there are crazies out there!!

Here's an old pic of my clubby with the round halogens

Hard to tell the difference on a clubman, since the lights are inset it doesn't really matter I think.


On a roundie, you would really want the round ones, same goes for a moke, because the lights are so out there

I think for $60, you can't go wrong
Wipac is a good brand

Add $20 for globes and another $20 for bosch relays and you're laughing

Thanks fellas. I think I don't really care whether mine are curved or flat.

What do people who know more than me reckon about this kit? http://www.minis.com.au/minis/catalog/p ... 9c3ff192b8 Has anyone had any experience with these lights?

I need to order some bits from there, and am wondering if I may as well chuck these on the order as well.

The Narva H4's have a flat lens. I use them on my truck at work. They are fairly good quality lights. There is some better brands but there is a lot of worse ones!
Don't use Narva globes though, they will last a week or a month but never a year.

Thanks Morris.

What would everyone reckon the better brands are? Wipac? Hella?

What's the best price people have found and where from?

Thanks team.
