England Xenon Lights

I am still awaiting my 04 MCS Black/Black....

Is there any way to change the bulbs at the front to be as powerful and bright as those on the Audi TT????

I still think Audi have the best lights even if they do blind you from time to time - although i must say BMW X5 and M3 have equally superb white lights.

Does anyone know if this can be done to a MCS and how much it would cost fitting buying etc.

I thought the Xenons on the Mini would be like the BMW X5 but i dont think they are as bright

Any comments more than welcome

Not long now .........3 weeks ish

I agree. The Audi A4 sold here in the states has awesome Xenon's with a blue tint. The Mini Xenon's are blue when they first "ignite" from the ballast, but turn white in color. I do not know if the Audi supplied bulb will fit in the Mini headlamps. The owners manual is pretty vague in the Xenon bulb only saying it should last the life of the vehicle. Check out my post about the optical blue headlamp covers. They look awesome and protect the lens assembly from pitting/cracks.
