I spoke with HID-direct this morning and said to make the Astra lights fit ill need to either order some cut clips or cut existing ones myself. Anyone else had this?a11y wrote:Certainly no cutting involved with mine!

I'm sorry for being stupid, but will this kit fit inside the headlight housing?

I'm starting to get confused as to why people are suggesting the slimline astra kit of the one above will do the job

When on main they are so bright that street signs, especially in rural areas reflect back and down (presumably designed that way and dazzle.
Secondly the road is so well lit for so far that when you dip for oncoming traffic it's as though you plunged into a black tunnel and can't see sod all. Alright on a straight road but on fast twisty A roads I find myself slowing and wondering where the hell the road goes next.
See the thread re the aftermarket lights - a complete nightmare!!!
