Steve
Just went to order these, what's the postage charge that I need to apply there are a couple of variants on the site, the Osram offer is the cheapest, but free would be better
Cheers

Are these a straight replacement on the D4 HSE?
Interested in these but just checking the fitment. Presumably a straight plug in too (not had to replace a xenon bulb yet)Brian - East Sussex

Easy to fit D3s, NOT D4s. If I can do it, a drunk trained chimp on steroids can.

Just done mine, changing the HID bulbs was much easier than changing the high beam bulbs.
If anyone is nervous about it, worry not. If I can do it anyone ca.
Take off this cover, following the arrow,

Twist the silver cap to remove it, though twist against the arrow as at first I didn't twig that lock means unlock the other way.

Lift out the bulb after undoing the spring clip, mega easy access, and put the new one in same orientation then redo the spring clip (way easier said than done for the high beam).

Fitting is the reverse of the above. Easypeasy.
Looking forward to heading out in the dark now.

Sorry they will not fit as the D4 runs D3S units with integrated ignitor
No D3S upgrade from Osram yet.Paul Redding
