Stick to a 35w kit and a colour temp of between 4300k to 6000k
OEM xenons or osram nightbreakers nothing else !!
I have OEM xenons that i scored on ebay for £80 posted, they normal go for £200+ on SRS.
There just plug and play although you should have level sensors and HL washers i have washers but dont work lol
Ive never personally used osram nightbreakers but heard only good things or get the ring branded equivalent ones.
The MOT rules are odd. They say something like "cars with HID's may have headlamp washers and automatic levelling" then go on to say "where fitted these must work".
Seems to me that due to the "may" in the first part, its possible for a car without washers to pass just fine, even though its technically illegal to have HID's but no washers.
I dont recommend using conversion kits in standard headlamps.
Only use genuine D2S lamps with a projector designed to use D2S lamps.
Its the only way to get the correct beam pattern.
Cheers for the feedback guys, definitely food for thought. Proctor, a number would be very helpful, thanks. Are most people in agreement that HIDs Direct are a good source of reliable kits? Having owned both a PFL and now a FL b5 I can honestly say that the only difference in my opinion is aesthetic. The FL unit looks more modern and cleaner as for lighting performance I struggle to tell them apart with standard bulbs fitted. From those with experience fitting these HID kits, are they relatively straight forward? Assuming you buy a good quality one. Cheers.
I've bought many kits for various cars over the last 8 years , all from Hids Direct ...never had one problemOranoco - is there any where specific you'd recommend to get a HID kit from? HIDs Direct? Cheers.
DavieK - where did you get your kit from for your e60?
