    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.
    Cheers

    As promised:

    Sidelights

    Dipped Beam

    Main Beam

    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.

    Hi Paul

    Your lights do look cool and very bright!

    Ive changed my A4 headlamp to Angel Eyes. I believe they use the H7 bulbs and give the Xenon look but arent xenon, if you know what i mean.
    Im after some replacement bulbs but ive noticed that main beam isnt really that bright, can i get brighter H7 Bulbs?

    Sorry if i sound dumb ...
