I've read loads of topics on here about "should I get these" or "are these legal", so I thought I would pose my own question of what lights do you think look the best on a mini?

Any halogens are going to be better (light-wise) than the sealed beams, think they'll look pretty similar. There are also the angel eyes if you fancy a bit of a boy-racer more modern look..

They look good, I do like the look of the angel eyes too but like said above, they are always gonna have a bit of a boy racer look

I just bought these lights, assuming they would fit fine without buying more (oops) http://www.minisport.../info_QUAD.html
do I need all 3 of these things in order to fit them?
Headlamp Bowl Rubber Seal with Lugs, Inner Headlamp Ring, Outer Headlamp Ring.
http://www.minisport.../info_9403.html
http://www.minisport...fo_515218A.html
http://www.minisport...nfo_500929.html
And have I missed anything?
This is all to go on replacement panels, not genuine.
Cheers

H4 xenon upgrades can be fitted instead of the standard bulbs. i currently use the philips extreme vision xenon bulbs, which claims to be 90% brighter.
make sure you buy the right ones though. get the 55/60w ones, and not the 100w ones which will melt your wiring.
