baskers · Apr 5th, 2008, 06:14 PM

If I'm being honest... tacky.

mister.t · Apr 5th, 2008, 06:22 PM

They look a little odd. Im sure they'd grow on me - I used to hate spot-lights on Minis, but I love them now, so it wouldn't take much

..Blackadder.. · Apr 5th, 2008, 06:43 PM

Nah led spots look pants sorry, if they float your boat go for them!

I don't like them myself, think pretty much like you all do, a little tacky, but the visual output from the beams will be emmence!

Just a thought is there no way of fettling oem spots so the have leds?? now they would be cool.

Paul · Apr 5th, 2008, 07:18 PM

'Orrible, unless they light up various different colours, then, perhaps, festive!?

mikeythemini · Apr 5th, 2008, 07:23 PM

I've played with a set. Very unusual, very bright pure white.
Will put them on my site

mini-millie-n-dan · Apr 5th, 2008, 07:25 PM

Don't like them to be honest!! I've got Wipac fogs on mine and they look fab (just like the BMW ones but cheaper and made from stainless steel).

*Vikki* · Apr 5th, 2008, 07:27 PM

I think they are alright

David King · Apr 5th, 2008, 10:22 PM

Im sure i saw a similar set in Halfords - Need i say more!!

NO!!!!!!

S8RAH · Apr 5th, 2008, 10:49 PM

Sorry, I hate to offend but they're wrong, just wrong!

Darthbladerni · Apr 5th, 2008, 10:51 PM

I dont like them at all. The light output may well be good but thats it.

If Halo spotlamps were made with those as the halo light it would be ok possibly

Aberdeen Al · Apr 6th, 2008, 08:56 AM

Nope - they look awful

Now if someone was to sell halo headlights with LEDs (similar to the Audi ones) in a ring then they would look good

OJM · Apr 6th, 2008, 10:02 AM

As someone already said, if you could put the OEM spots lense over the front of them, then YES - then sell me your spots, so I can have 4

haha.

ALD0 · Apr 6th, 2008, 11:31 AM

Look cool if they were like a day time runnin LED!

Mini-Trainer · Apr 6th, 2008, 01:26 PM

Has anybody tried or herd of anyone getting 4 spots on the front of an R56 or do we suffer the same problem as the R53, BMW won't fit due to airflow problems
