Awsome, did you have any rubbing issues when you fitted them or is it just a direct fit?

I'm running coilovers and the cars quite low, I was told i'd have problems with rubbing the arches????

Thanks for the reply by the way

They're Hella Supertones (check out a seller called Neverenoughauto on fleabay). You need to wire in a relay and the drivers side one is tight on the power steering cooler, but after putting it off for about a year, it ended up taking me about an hour
