This product:
http://db.hella.com.au/cgi-bin/catal...ew&flmaint=862 My ugly paramedic brother installed the driving light option of this light set on his BMW 1000. Seems happy with them for that purpose. 9.1314.01 Per link, choose Driving lamp Insert when ordering, you don't want the shop to order them as front fogs, make sure they listen and order correctly! The driving light option should show the E-Code "HR" left of the E mark along the bottom of the lens. "02B" is front fog. It will also show the North American market 'driving light' designation "Y", eg SAE-Y. The Y becomes "F" for fog. Sorry, NO working experience with the front fog light option. 9.1114.01 Fog lamp insert, white. Cost was around $175 for him I think (Newcastle). DO choose the protective polycarbonate cover option. BULBS: For these are H3, I'd be choosing the 'premium option' if for driving light here: http://db.hella.com.au/cgi-bin/catal...w&flmaint=2025

Yep, good prices.
Remember to grab the protective cover and maybe say the Premium Plus 30's bulb for them.

Yes, you did get a HUGE bargain as the price to hella employees is roughly 3 times that amount. Just remember to run a fuse from the battery to the relay. these aren't included in the kit and i burnt out my wiring and reflector of one of these exact same lights cos the ground and the fabric fly lead on a bulb shorted out. A 30A or so fuse will stop this.

Yep, done good.
I'd be keeping the signed box by the way. AND take note of Damo's post.
