Title: SIM 9" Driving Lamps
Post by: CeeJay on January 21, 2013, 09:18:11 PM

Hi All

I'm after a new set of driving lamps to replace by now rusty spots.  I'd love cibies (but I'm not paying £230 for a pair), but I came across a company called SIM who produce 9" Cibie Oskar replicas for less than half the price.

My question is has anyone used them and are they any good?

Regards
Craig.

The ones I was looking at where:

But I actually ended up buying:

I decided that as the lamps are hardly needed (I have new headlights with an HID Kit so the lamps are more for show than extra light) that I didn't need to go and spend big money.  So the ones at £50 will do me fine.
