Cheers Ini, I will have a look for a kit, I have noticed different Kelvin rated kits, Is it best to go for the higher rated kit for the ultimate upgrade or is there a risk with headlamp construction materials? Ie Plastic lights melting etc?
Cheers fior the help.
Sorry to hi-jack but I'm thinking of fitting 6000k Xenons to mine. The more the Kelvin the bluer the light becomes, anything over 8000k becomes a bit silly. From stock, cars are usually fitted with 6000k or 8000k HID kits.

Cheers Paul, i have seen 8000K kits retailing at around £95.
As i am new on here, do any of the sponsors do these kits? :D
I think there are sponsors on here who might do you a deal. Maybe drop one of the moderators, RickT, mk5golfgttdi, mycarsavw, onzarob, stuart (sorry If I've missed anybody out :D) a line, I'm sure they'll put you in touch with somebody.
Paul
Thanks I will look into it and see if I can get a kit from a sponsor :D
I assume to much. I assume you know how to PM one of the moderators...
Paul
Yeah I know how to Pm, I am a Mod on another forum ( Not a car related one though )
Dont go too high on the Kelvin scale, 4300 - 6000 is ideal.
The bluer the colour, the less light they output.
Your halogen projector lens will help to create the blue 'of axis' beam colour anyway.
Cheers Ini, good tips here!
I havent yet contacted anyone but can I ask, is there any good and bad manufacturers of these Kits? Just so I know what to look out for.
As promised:
Sidelights
Attachment 2045
Dipped Beam
Attachment 2046
Main Beam
Attachment 2047
As you can probably see, the sidelights on there own look naff. But pair them with some decent dipped beam bulbs (like a Xenon kit) and they look good.
