Or from big boys toys you can get chrome ones - £190, black ones (one's i've ordered) - £200 or blue chrome for £210. Usually lights come with the bulbs with them i thought just like the tail lights.

they did leak sidaba, but i sent them bak and got new ones now. this time i have sealed them with uni bond, so no way is anything getting inside them now

But when it comes down to it they leak, we shouldn't have to go to great lengths to stop the leaking. Mine don't leak because i've sealed mine with silicon seal. I class leaking as huge puddle in the lights, occasionly the smallest, minutest part of mine mist up so there is still some sort of "leak" but i'm not any longer getting puddles in them. Out of interest if you've used uni-bond, what are you going to do when you have to replace a bulb? wont you rip the current seal on them?

Jazzy - Ah that's interesting, mine were actally leaking from the seal that pushes against the bodywork because they didn't line up properly! Mine are sealed around the seal that pushes against the car using a thick stick pad that goes around the hole on the metal work, the silicon seal i used as an extra precaution around the seal on the lights that presses against the sticky pad.
Carmadaaron - You can buy the chrome or the black FK lights from
www.venommotorsports.com for £114 (£124 inc p&p).
