    I would absolutely love these on my mini they’re absolutely perfect for what i need. I do a lot of night driving and it’s terrible with my current headlights. I would be so grateful to win those lights!!

    I was ready to come in and slate another youtuber putting LED bulbs in halogen housings, but I'll happily hold my hands up. The output from both of the LED replacements looks really quite good.

    I bet the Bad Obsession Motorsports guys would be keen on the OEM look bulbs.. more than enough time to get them on Binky, it'll be at least another year before they've finished :D

  • @Jvincent1217
    @Jvincent1217 4 года назад +1

    This is probably one of the best light setups that I have seen for the classic mini. way better looking than the LED headlight that I put on a while back.

  • @MarioFunk
    @MarioFunk 4 года назад +2

    I believe that extra bulb is the parking light, much like the Wipacs on the MPi Mini. In Europe, rather than having the parking light incorporated into the turn signal, it's a separate bulb in the main headlight housing.

  • @dalewarren9518
    @dalewarren9518 4 года назад +3

    Great vid . I can only describe driving a classic mini at night like having two candle's as head lamps . The new lamps are amazing 👍

    @BeaTxhyonotic 4 года назад +1

    These are totally the lights to the end of my dark tunnel. I have recently rebuilt my mini in South Africa and been looking for some high quality lights to make her look like a real 21st century go cart. Your videos have been a massive help, thanks for all the content and awesome tutorials!.

  • @pakgorgor

    I had not considered swapping to LED headlights precisely because of wanting to keep the classic look, but the OE7s have changed my mind! Let me be the winner lol!

    Would die for some LED headlights. Would also make the mother feel a lot better knowing I can see where I am going 😂 thanks for all your hard work with the videos though man they have been such a big help when I’m working on my mini 🇬🇧

    The design of them is so much better then the black Halo LED replacements some have. These are modern and fit the mini perfectly!
    If the LED is not CE certified and I win, please select someone else as I wont be able to use them. Better someone else gets to be happy then the lights just sitting on my shelf. thx :)

  • @willacrocker
    @willacrocker 4 года назад +1

    Great timing on the video. I am looking at LED bulbs for my project, but trying to avoid the lure of buying something cheap from Amazon. That being said, nearly anything would be better than the original sealed beam bulbs which aren’t much better than a candle

  • @johnclark499
    @johnclark499 4 года назад

    Thanks for the video. I have been very hesitant to change to LED because of so many choices and frankly worried about light quality and beam pattern. I don't want to blind on coming drivers and be generally obnoxious. It looks like these may be the ones I am after. Great install video. BTW I would love to have a set for my 94 Rover Cooper.
