Default H.I.D Lights

Just wanted to say how pleased I am with my new H.I.D Lights on my Escort.

Big thanks to Mike Rainbird for all the help in sorting out bulbs that would fit in to the inners on my morrets and also to Martin at Reyland for fitting of the kit.

Dont know of any other owners that have done this, but if you have not i would recommend fully as the difference is amazing and I found myself going faster through the twisty bits as i could see further ahead and it was so clear.

Attatched are some pics of the lights at night, and if you need the Kit, Mike is the man to see..

Very nice!!

Have you got 2 sets of ballasts then,? I take it the inners (main beam) are HID too??

I've had set on mine for quite a while, but the inners are still normal bulbs.

Yes inners are new to, was first one thanks to Mike to have this kit done.

Mike went to great lengths to get them to fit, only downside is, if you have old style lamps, these will need to be replaced with the new style to allow the bulbs to fit in, also the tip of the bulbs needs gentle filing to fit, but Mike can help with this, the cost too was very good considering what goes in to it, have got 2 ballasts now fitted to inner wings and cant be seen.
