I've previously bought a H4 hi/lo (or however you say it, HID main beam, normal small bulb for other) HID kit, to my knowledge, all i need is the right bulbs to use this kit ......right? as ballasts are fine.

what size/type do i need?

cheers

great guide there - just fitted mine. 'like a glove' as you say.

Quick question - in my kit there are 2 extra bags of cables - each with a 20w 10ohm resistor. What's that for? any ideas?

at a guess, its to fool some kinda bulb monitoring system that everythings working ok?

The A4 ones designed for HID's anyway, so it should be happy.

Extra cables with resistors...?

Send them my way! My M3 needs them as the bulb check keeps throwing up bulb errors!

yep, only required on flighty systems.
mine pops a code every no wna dthen when I turn them off but it is instantaneous and goes as quick as it came.

have some resistors here also if anyone wants them.

thought I had a dead ballast last week, turned out to be a loose connector.
