HI, Which version did you buy? off road or normal?
Just wondered as I`m sure I read a few years back that someone put in the off road ones and it melted the plastic light.

Normal ones mate! Cant go wrong with them. I think they even have warranty (not that anyone would ever claim warranty over a bulb lol)
