See what you mean by being pricey! to ship 4 to the UK incl P+P is $208.96 or £142.81..

So far I have only changed my rear lights, but I have the tinted headlights ready to be fitted. Can I please advise you not to try and change your headlights using PowerfulUK's Youtube video? Seriously, I took my car down to my folks' place last week to have my Dad swap the lights over for me and it was a complete disaster! The video makes it look so easy, but there simply isn't enough room to get your lights out of there without scraping paint off your bumper and it's even more difficult trying to put the light back in again. Even using thick, fabric tape on the bumper, the light went right through it and lifted some paint from the edge of the bumper. There is no doubt about it, the bumper needs to come off and I don't want anyone else having the upset that I had last week, hence giving you this advice. My car will be going to the body shop to have the lights fitted and to have my front bumper fixed in the next week or so. I have calmed down a bit now, but I was not a happy bunny last week, .

I haven't tried to swap the fogs over, but I think when the bumper is off to fit your headlights, it would be much easier having access to the fogs from the rear. I can't wait to see your beautiful, stealthy Evoque with its darker elements in place! xx

Thanks for the info on the headlights. No wonder why I couldn't remove them when I was installing the LED turn signal bulbs for the headlights a few weeks ago. LOL. I did see the Powerfuluk's vid though. I think I'll just have my dealer install both. My car has the TSB L538 which is the kit for the intercooler and I believe the front bumper has to be removed to install the intercooler cover which would be an ideal time to install the headlights/foggies as the same time.

I am digging the new taillights though.

They make it look SO easy, but in reality, it's a pig of a job to do without removing the bumper. Best to get the dealer to sort it all out for you, as you say.

Oh YESSS! Looking way too cool for school with the Special Edition lights on ! Paula xx
