Easy to fit and no problems so far. Incidentally, as I'd been messing around with the h/lights as part of fitting these, thought I'd get the h/light alignment checked at an MoT place in case I'd knocked it was out of true (turns out they were still spot on) and I asked the garage owner whether his testers would pass or fail a car with after-market HIDs, he said as long as the alignment and beam pattern were correct it was none of his business what bulbs I had.

Actually it could be a problem with the MOT test. For HID's Xenons you are also supposed to have self levelling lights and head light washers, but I'm not aware of any station that has failed someone for having these fitted.
