MINI Focus on Exterior Lights
Brighten up your Mini with these Mini extras...
Ultra |  | If you are a MINI owner (and if not, why not!) you will love the sense of fun you get whenever and wherever you drive your car.
Visually it's in a class of its own (ok we are being biased) as a real head turner is the oval-shaped headlights, so changing the appearance of these will have a dramatic effect on the look of your car.
Over the past 12 months, more and more after market lighting products are becoming available so the choice for upgrading has never been so good.
Ultra has introduced a cleaner, new look design called Projector, suitable for all Gen One www.lohen.co.uk MINIs as an ideal replacement for standard headlights, priced at £190. There is a choice of either chrome or black internal finish and both come with an inbuilt Halo sidelight, perfectly matching the Halo design indicators and sidelights, priced at 64, available for the lower light assembly on the MINI (purchased separately).
If you have a further £170 to blow, a Xenon upgrade kit is available for these headlights too. Want the full package? The rear ones will set you back another £130 but if you are looking for something eye-catching say Lohen, Ultra is the answer.
Ultra also has an excellent range of LED rear and brake lights to consider before you spend so its best to call Nick at Lohen to find out more. | | Contact Lohen 01785 859999 www.lohen.co.uk |
| | Wipac |  | You won't just like these lights, you'll absolutely love them!
There is nothing that gives a MINI owner greater satisfaction than keeping one step ahead of the field so add these incredibly stylish auxillary lights by Wipac to your car to truly stand out in the crowd.
So what makes them so special? Well, the automotive specialist has manufactured the world's first LED driving lamp and the great news for MM readers is it’s available for the Gen 1 and 2 MINI.
Sold in pairs, each lamp has nine LED bulbs which give a distinctive, bright white light that is complimentary to any main beam and say Wipac 'will make you the envy of other road users'.
It is corrosion proof (resists water penetration) and is capable of handling heat buildup to provide faultless illumination.
The lamp has been designed and tested exhaustively over 18 months and carries the all-important E-mark stamp of approval making it road legal.
Retailing around the £300 mark, the lamps are simple to fit with all the necessary fixings and instructions supplied.

|  | If you are looking to brighten the road ahead on those dark nights, the only manufacturer to consider when buying new headlights is Bosch, says distributor Euro Car Parts.
It's the perfect replacement for your MINI as they are a direct fit and you can really see the difference new Bosch headlights can make within seconds, adds Euro Car Parts.
Focusing on its motto 'more light, more visibility, increased safety', Bosch has designed and developed a headlight to take into account the increase in power and performance of new car models introduced over recent years.
And, it’s not only this improvement it's centered its efforts on; Bosch has also increased its visual appeal by adding new, sleek designs - which is good news for MINI owners.
Euro Car Parts is selling standard headlamps, for all models from £81.27 each and Xenon headlamps from £272.50 each.
The company is also offering Modern MINI readers a HID Xenon upgrade kit (Virtual Daylight) at a discounted £135.95! The headlamps come with or without washers so it’s best to give Euro Car Parts a call to discuss your direct requirements.
