Do the Ziza bulbs work in the non-S Countryman w/out causing an error message?

They work in all Countryman models, and no bulb out error to worry about.

'k, last question. Are they sold in pairs or individually? Website isn't clear...

edit...oops. I didn't hit 'show more' info.. $27 shipping here to southern Ontario is holding me back.

They are in pairs, for the Ziza kits they always come in complete sets for the job unless noted.

White with a hint of very light blue dependent on the reflection and angle the reflect light in the reflector backing.

Thanks

Anyone have a pic with these lights with non-xenon? Curious if it would look awkward.

Probably should do the fog light while I am down there too.

Most likely will make the standard halogen look more dirty bathwater yellow color since the LED are alot white and blue unless you retro fit the housing with Xenon and or put like superwhite bulbs in.

Sweet! I didn't even notice the color of the "Cooper" or "Countryman" in the first picture. Looks like it was a pain in the boot to strip the plastidip between all of the letters.

So even though I have another thread on wheel choice, I figured I would post this here as there are a few changes done that these pictures show;

Tires - Yoko YK580's
Wheels - Focal X
Exhaust - Resonator Delete & Stainless Tips
Graphics - Checkered fender stripes (both sides)
Mirrors - Checkered flag

Are you near the Pasadena area? I saw a car that I could swear looks exactly like your car.

I think changing the chromed brake duct inlets to white would make the front end pop a bit more and match with the rest of the CM.
As for the checkerboard theme, I think you could get the matte clear vinyl/film and apply it to all the black gloss plastic around the glass for a subtle "ghost" checkerboard appearance.
