I got quite fed up with the Halfrauds ones several years ago - they never seemed to crimp both ends of the filament properly, resulting in a failed bulb every couple of months. Annoying thing was looking in the bulb and seeing one end of the perfectly intact filament waving at you
Do they still do this, or are they safe to buy again?
i'll let you know... in a couple of months. Fingers crossed, then
They've been in for over 2 months now, & I can report that both replacement stop/tail lights (sourced from Halfords) are still working fine, touch wood DGRR

How do you replaced the light bulbs? Do you have to take out the complete taillight? Were are the screws?
When you've undone the screws, get a plastic fish slice or spatula from the kitchen and push it under the bottom edge of the light cluster then lever up. When the bottom end is free from the lug put the plastic thing in the top and do the same thing
