This is the first time I have seen this video and it is a great fun video and pretty much spot on. I have the LED driving lights and I would not order them again. They wont hold position as they sort of fall over some when you hit bumps and you have to align them every time that you drive with them on. They are bright and do really light up the area, but with the LED headlights they are an expensive bit of fluff. I would not order them if I had used them before I ordered this mini.

Thanks for your response and if your hold position function works there is some hope! Honestly, I ordered them as much for appearance as function, but they are overpriced for what they are. I will inspect the offending brackets again today and attempt to ascertain how they can be tightened to prohibit them from moving up and down and negating their effectiveness. I don't have a lot of faith in our dealer's ability to correct the situation though. I will ask them about it when I take it in for the oil and filter change. On another note I have scheduled dynamometer time for next week and hope to determine the horsepower with the JCW Pro exhaust open and closed to verify horsepower each way. I will attempt to scan the charting and share it if they cannot provide me with and electronic file.

I hope you can get the lights sorted! FYI they are normally installed at the port (not the dealer), but my dealer had a rush on my delivery so they installed them....did a fine job. I do agree they are somewhat overpriced...my dealer had told me the price would be even more (based on MINI labor book), but they held my initial quote.
Interested in seeing the dyno info! :-)
