| Anything over 80 starts to drink, speeds between 70-80 don't seem to make much difference. Pick a number. |

| I've got a MY13 but it's a lower spec 5" LCD one. All seemed fine with mp3s on a USB memory stick. I'll check a little later. |

| Had an evening trip today and the dipped beam was awful. However, oddly enough, high beam seems okay. |

| On the halogens you hear a loud clunk when you 'flash' the headlights or switch to main beam. As far as I can tell the LED bits do not change in intensity. |

Standard Halogens are single bulb for both low & high beam using a HB3 form.
I've ordered nightbreaker plus replacements to try to make up for the dimness of the standard bulb. |
