this is simple.
when MOT come after 3 years just take out the white 1s and put the old yellow backin.
this is a simple 5min mod.
this is what I do in HK for all my cars that need MOT.

Hi Ping,

Just like to say thanks for the bulbs received them in 4 days which is awesome from Hong Kong to the UK!! Put them in aswell and I have to say they look REALLY white compared to the yellow stock bulbs.

Also I bought some H7 super white bulbs for the main headlights and got some Philips Blue Vision 12v5W bulbs free and thought I'd mention how rubbish they were compared to your bulbs. I had one Halo ring with your bulb, the other one with the Philips and its amazing how white yours are compared to the Philips...it makes theres look yellow!!

...Satisfied customer...

Thanks
Jaz

very glad that you are happy.
It took me 3 years to try many bulbs out.
like I said before, I tryed the Philips 3 years ago and they are yellow looking. :thumbsdown:
but if the free it better than nothing. but for me I what the best and Philips will not do for me.
