Northern light in Scotland. Is it possible?

Hi all, I will be taking a drive up to the Scottish highlands and was thinking if the Northern lights are visible there at this time of year. I mean, Scotland is north but not as north as the places you tend to see the northern lights in.
 
Something worth noting before I jump off, the two months I mentioned above are the back end of the lights. December and January are technically best months.
 
You can definatelly see them in Scotland but you are definatelly in the last months now. Also, you need a clear night which is pretty hard to come by over there.
