Default HID Lights turned up today - Pics inside!

Gave em a quick test as been too wet tonite to fit them properly.

Bulb on the left is one of these...



100w Ice blue H4 halogen.

Bulb on the right is a 8000k HID light.

I thought my halogen lights were proper white until I tried the HIDs!

yeah they come as part of the kit



They're proper BI xenon too. i.e they work in high beam mode by a solenoid that move the light back and forward.

Combi_Chris, they apparantly run cooler than the 100w bulbs I had in there before. The ones I got there cost Ł230 + del. But you can get them in dipped beam only form for Ł199 + del.

They also do kits for fog and driving lights
