I think they are £600 for the set. Probably start to see them cheaper on ebay soon though.

Hmm, i thought they were around £95 each.......I believe that they plug straight in on the 111r's but you need some sort of wiring mod for rover powered cars.
They usually go for more than they cost on ebay!

Lotta dosh for lights... there have been 2 or 3 sets on Ebay and one of them went for £300. A bit of a saving but still a lotta dosh!

If you could find clear lenses it wouldn't be that difficult to make a set

Enter Sanjoy, stage left...
IIRC Sanjoy did a fair amount of research on the subject for S1 rear LED lights about 2/3 years ago...
Can't quite remember what the outcome was
