Like your car mate, any more plans for it?

I keep being tempted by the 19's you have for sale for my F30 but spent too much lately

Thanks, I've actually since sold the 320d and I now have a 330d.

I always have car plans, when I sell the 442's I'm sure the money will be recycled to mine. I'm thinking carbon fibre front end splitters, painting the boot lip gloss black and perhaps an in/out car detail.

The 442's are lovely, I have a feeling they may sell soon. I thought £850 was pretty cheap but it's the time of the year, most people are broke post Xmas.

Have you seen this thread?

As people above have mentioned, most definitely avoid Horizon LEDs. I posted on the other thread to let people know that I posted a review on their website and they altered the score I submitted from 2/5 to 4/5. Then when I complained about it, they removed the review entirely.

As you will see on their website, they have a lot of fraudulent 5 star reviews on there and nothing negative. Also the after-sales service is shocking. Don't expect them to process any warranty claims if you have problems.

You can buy the same, if not better, quality bulbs elsewhere like on eBay, and for much cheaper. So I would recommend doing that instead.

The Horizon thread on the forum was closed likely because I reported them for using fake reviews.

Hope this helps!

I haven't had the 313's on too long and she needs a proper clean. Only photo's I have so far are as follows:

Previously I had her like this



She was dirty but couldn't resist a snap





So I cleaned her up quickly but it gets dark quite quick

I use a karcher. The standard karcher lance was pants so I purchased a much better one from ebay with adjustable pressure and spray angle.

In all honesty, it looks good but the pressure washer can remove the same amount of dirt, if not more without the foam but I have it now so may aswell use it. It also smells nice

So this thread has wondered a little off topic

I wanted to give you an update on my latest experience with Horizon LED's, I have had the 20w Gold Bulbs for a year now & have been very happy with them but I noticed they had launched a new 40w version so had to have these

They arrived quickly so the service was good although when they arrived I found that the connections were very loose causing the lights to flicker

Also when I had changed the drivers side I noticed that they didn't look any brighter than my existing ones



So I filled in the returns form online & returned them, posted recorded (signed for) & have now received my refund

All those that have slated Horizon LED's above & on other threads I am not sure what your issues have been but even though I have returned my item the service was first class & I can't fault them
