Well actually thought I'd go quality route and paid £20 to autobulbsdirect can't even be bothered to respond to emails, shame prob done £500 with them over the years so that's the last of my money they'll get. Anyone got a better source or do we go back to OEM?

Just keeping my fingers crossed there are no reliability issues with them
