    Talking HID's Fitted

    Recieved them today!
    It's like driving with all the lights on at once!!
    Highly recomended!!!

    Guess which is the old and the new!










    What's everyones opinion?

    What other cars have other people on here used them in, I know there are a lot of cally's with them but never heard about others using them.

    Ideal, I`ve been tempted for a while but was a touch concerned what`d happen come MOT time.

    May have to invest in a set as my lights are ****e.

    Kind of, just had to find some where for the ballast to go. Drill a hole in the light cover to get the grommet in. Change one of the spade connectors for a bullet. Plug all the plugs in and bobs your uncle.

    Agreed Hid kits are superb for driving... any other light just looks dirty.

    I fitted my 6000k HIDs to my mk4 (with shark-eyes) at the weekend. They're so damn good!

    Like it's a hire car
    How much is everyone paying for these?
    Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, thoroughly used, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming... "f*ck, what a trip!"

    No because the calibra has H7 bulbs which are seperate high and low.

    Calibra actually has H1's and H3's for the fogs.

    I only got 4300k in mine, lights the road up better but not as blue in the tint, it is just pure white now.
