I would buy a haynes manual £18. I also understand that the round ball headlight is not nessary a HID lamp, Just the focused beam type. Check your option list codes in boot/service manual if not sure.

Hope this helps

Hi

If you car is fitted with "HID" or XENON bulbs, I would recommend taking the car to a dealer. These type of bulbs can prove fatal if you are not sure what you are doing. I belive, from reading other forums, that the igniter for these types of bulb kick out in the region of 20000v.. enough to kill you!

Before they can be removed they need to be discharged.
