HID Lights

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/H4-6000K-Genui...d=p3286.c0.m14

Is this HID kit any good? Suitable for MK5 Astra SXi?

I'm looking for a decent HID kit, and I've been told that there are some decent £30ish kits on eBay... I've found this, but a lot of others tend to be around £70-£150. I'm wondering if this is actually going to be any good.

Re: HID Lights

Normal HID kits wont work in a Mk5 Astra, you need a Canbus ready kit otherwise they will continually trip out due to the bulb check system.

Theres also no difference in the cheaper kits, by cheaper i mean £30-£150. They're all made in the far east and do the same job. Unless you pay £300-£500 for something like Hella, Bosch etc then you wont see any difference. Mine cost £45 3 years ago and are still going with no problems
