Also all bulbs must be E marked and there is always some grey area around if these things are approved or not, or just printed on there!

Personaly, i'd have a set in my SV, but just cant justify the cost. Just dont want forum members to come along in a couple of months and say 'I have just been done for having HID's in my bike why didnt anyone tell me?'
