The Phillips are the only ones in silver AFAIK.

I've got them on mine - all you have to do is file off one of the lugs and they will fit in fine - very secure still and I've had no problems in several months...........

Wah,
I got the Silver Vision ones to do the same in my MY01, andf had the same prob.

I phoned Powerblubs as I thought they had sold me the wrong ones. They advised that if you origionally had clear lenses and an orange bulb, then these will fit as the lugs are at ten to two ish. However, if you are converting from orange lenses to clear then they won't fit out of the box as we require lugs on opposing sides, i.e. the 6 o/c position.

As detailed above, the solution suggested is to gradually file one of the lugs with a hand file until it will go in snugly.

Sorted
