I have been looking for a set of spot lights for the mini and came across these,
Has anyone seen or purchased a set of these cibie copies ?

I don't know if I'd wan't fake lights. Considering their job is to light the road ahead.

I wouldn't put copy brakes on my car, same goes for lights.

Just my opinion though.

I know what you are saying mate but just because they are copies doesn't mean that they would not light up the road ahead.
They would be more for looks than the use of the lights as the covers will be left on.

I put a set on my mate 4x4 those exact ones and they are a copy of the original Cibie shape and lens, they are not bad and have a good refelector, as long as you buy them and accept there not Cibies there not bad lights.

You could take a look at these http://www.ebay.co.u...=item3a7e9b2ebb

I was going to get them for mine, much cheaper than those copied Cibies. jb93 has Ring Rally Giants on his

Fair play, it's what you prefer at the end of the day. They do look good them ones you posted, just can't believe that price

[leeuk]

Expensive i know yes mate but there still at half the price of the original oscors and i think that they will set the front of the mini off quite well.

I'd hardly start comparing copies of 'Additional Spotlights' , to that of a crucial braking component...

Look good considering the price of genuine Cibies :)

i was looking for cibies once over , ended up paying close to 200 for 4 . anyway when i was looking i came across these , and from what i can remember the chroming didn't last long in the great British weather

I think its worth me giving them a go mate, although my mini is just for the finer days of summer, the rest of the time it will be tucked up in the garage,
This is what the listing states -
They have the INOX stainless steel front ring which will not rust or pit.

Oliver, May i ask how yours are secured to your mini mate ?

Just saying, you wouldn't by a copy item for brakes, so why by copied items for lights. Seeing where you're going is just as important as stopping.
