thank you!
you won't regret it!!
we went to linc' in the week, driving down "roads" that were partically tracks through fields. we were in my mates 205, with ****ty lights, it was kinda scary, cause i'm so used to having the road lit up by the HID's on mine..
well worth it!

my last one had hid's, i really miss them.... the standard lights are a joke
is there any difference between the standard lights and the HID ones? Different lenses? Just wondering if it is a straight forward swap for the HID lamps.

they dont appear any different but it would be cheaper to get a hid kit. hid kits are circa ?70 off ebay and and nearly plug and play

In theory, the HID bulbs may make the beam slightly out of focus due to them sitting closer to the projector lenses. In practice, it makes fook all difference All the scare stories you hear about HIDs not producing the correct beam pattern are down to incorrect bulb shielding in reflector style headlights. These usually take H4 bulbs and require a full cap shield over the HID bulb, or hi/lo type HID bulbs.

Yep. An aftermarket kit is fitted in mine Only word of warning I'd say is to not trust in the supplied connectors. Solder and shrink wrap EVERY connection except the clip-lock connectors for the bulbs. :nod:

sounds like a plan. Hopefully they throw more light than the standard bulbs. The standard bulbs are crap! I am using the +50 globes at the moment and they still aren't that great.
