I chose to change the low beam bulbs (dipped beam) to the philips vision plus (50% brighter 20m extra distance) £30 uk and 100% road legal..

www.powerbulbs.com

Fog lamps = H7
Low beam = H7
Main beam = H3

Excellent bulbs I fitted them to my previous car and the difference was quite marked. Just ordered a set for my A2 and with postage they cost £24.99 inc p&p form http://www.edirectory.co.uk/ company is Autostylin Ltd. Now just got to check out how to change them.

Heh, heh. I've still only part fitted it. The front bracket you kind of force under the rear ashtray and screw into place. The rear bracket I kind of press into place and clip the holder in. It's held pretty firmly, but I need to screw the rear holding clips into place (you need to poke through the carpet and I haven't had time to lift out the rear seats yet to do this). In terms of taking it in and out, see my new pictures here (shameless post count increase....)

Thanks shezlee, I've noted down the instructions for swapping the light bulb. How easy is it to take the bonnet off/on as I've never done this. Instructions anywhere?

The dipped headlights are H7, the foglights are H1.
I've got Philips Bluevisions and I really like them.
The one thing annoying me is the yellow light from the citylights in the unit. So I'm thinking of replacing them with bright light white LED's. Conrad sells these LED's with a bajonet fitting that can be put right in.

Removing the bonnet is easy, just make sure you have a blanket to put it on.
