    I got them at cost price.

    Usually 129.00 at autobarn.

    But for me

    Lights - $85.00
    Switch - $5.95
    4 Metres of wire $7.00 (only needed 3metres using the wire included.)
    __________
    Grand Total $97.95 for better than factory lights and i was quoted $400 for a set.


    And took me about 1 1/2 hours to install them would be way faster if i didnt hook it up to the ignition. But keep in mind you have to figure out some way of mounting them. The mounting brackets dont fit. I used cable ties through the lights mounting bracket to the bumper one. Best way i could work out.

    I own an Commodore, therefore, I own the road


    Oh how i love rear wheel drive

    Yes, the actual mounting is the only thing i'm not sure of with any of the lights. I knew the size of the lights for a while. I got my original set of driving lights for my VR commodore for free. Which comes with enough wire and i work at Dick Smith, so switches arn't a problem LOL Now just gotta get the lights from somewhere

    Thanks for all that, do you have any pics of exactly how you secured the lights? Did you keep the original mounts in or not?
