You'll see how bright they are at night when you see the road signs flashing orange too! As for the blue bulbs, they sent me a set too but I haven't fitted them. It would just attract unwanted attention from the cops. I reckon they're for the side lights though.

W5W's are for the front side lights.
If they are the same as mine, they only look Blue when they are off. They give out a crisp white light when on, much brighter than standard.

The type that are a dark Blue when off will show Blue when on.....not good.
The Super White type that Lawrence LLewelyn would probably describe as having a hint of Blue when off, show only White when on

Sam,
If you remove the grille by unclipping al the clips along the top, you can unbolt the bracket from the front panel by accessing a 10mm bolt, rather than removing the 2 screws onto the headlight which are harder to get to.
Once the bracket is unbolted the headlight is merely clipped into the wing with push fittings so gently tug but mind the wong lip or youll take the paint off.

And yep, like everyone else it appears, I didn't buy bulbs first and didn't finish until after Halfords shut for the day. Oh well, just going to have to take my existing bulbs into work tomorra and spray them until my new silver ones come from Powerbulbs.com (ordered just now on advice from this thread). Thanks very much to the OP for concise and easy to follow instructions
