It depends on how much you want to spend.

When I have some money I am going to buy these:

Not sure if they are to everyone's taste but I like the idea of the UHP led as daytime running lights.

As for the back I would buy these:

I've noticed you can get LED rear lights in the states with the reversing/reflector the whole length of the light:

I've also noticed only the tail/stop lights are LED you would need to get LED indicator bulbs if you wanted it to match too.

those front lights are very nice, I must say, but to pay that type of money?? only need a stone to kick up and catch one of them and your money's down the pan. Obviously there are others out there at a fraction of the price, after all at the end of the day it's your money your spending (after you've asked the misses  :))) and down to personal choice. go for it. :thumbsup:
