New bulbs. The parkers were not the right fitting unfortunately, they were a bayonet when the ones in the car were a push in wedge. Not to worry though, a friend can use those and I want to get more arctic blue ones for the number plate lights anyway. :D

Pics are useless, but they give you a decent idea. The left fog has been replaced with a white light while the right is still standard, ill get onto those later.

Dip is about the same but visibly whiter, full beam is amazing, there's no comparison. :D

2. A vehicle (eg a vintage or veteran vehicle) does not meet standard rear-registration-plate illumination lamp requirements, and:
a) does not have a valid vehicle identity card with a lighting equipment endorsement, or
b) does not meet the conditions of the lighting equipment endorsement in its vehicle identity card.
Performance
3. The lamp emits a light that is not:
a) substantially white, or
b) steady, or
c) diffuse.
4. The lamps are not bright enough to show up the registration plate text from 20 m in normal darkness.
5. The light source of a lamp is visible from the rear of the vehicle.
From Wof Regs: Lighting (www.nzta.govt.nz) (Reasons for rejection); also headlights/foglights/driving lights pairs must match colors (see page 4-1-2), so would fix it soonest.
