   Hi just wanted to know how this guy has got red lights on the headlights?
   
   Are they just straight swaps with the existing bulbs? and are they legal?
   
   ....Finally, which colour would look best of a gold saxo?

   They look cheap and nasty, and more than likely illegal
   
   Get some nice white ones.

    Not really a fan of them personally mate, but i would have to see them in real life to fully pass judgement.
