   What do you mean bulb was too small?
   
   With the ultra smoked jewel clusters, you use your existing bulb holder and bulbs, the ultra cluster is exactly the same as the original saxo one so it should be just plug and play.

   Oh right, well you could always make the hole bigger with a drill/file. Otherwise a proper motorfactor should have a bulb of the correct size and wattage.

   That is quite odd, is it just the foglight bulb?

   Surely the lights are the same size/depth as your original lights, so I shouldn't see why there's a problem.
