Has anyone tried a set of 5" Wipac spotlights?

The BMW ones are a liitle pricey

I've got 2 x sets - they look exactly same as BMW ones.........................just make sure you keep cleaning them with Bar Tenders Friend (£3.50ish John Lewis) and you'll be fine

I just know this is a daft question but whats Bar Tenders Friend?

I've got them , don't use Bartenders Friend though. Just a good coat of Meg's Carnauba wax seems to keep them nice.

I bought them from Ebay they were £45 the pair. I already had the brackets and loom which I bought from Mini Sport (including their spots which were cr*p and wouldn't have insulted the car by fitting them). All together the total cost was around £120 - considerably cheaper than having the Stealers supply & fit them. Took me a couple of hours to install, most of which was taken up by having to cut the slots in the Aero grille.

Thanks for the comments.
