Title: HID / Bi Xenon Conversion
Post by: porsche on 20 January 2008, 22:15

Hi Folks,
Has anybody changed their lights to bi-xenon? Hows the improvement? Dose it give a good coverage using the standard headlamp unit? Also what kit did you buy & where from?

Thanks Alan.

It's illegal, please don't do it.

Here is the fact sheet explaining why (http://www.dft.gov.uk/pgr/roadsafety/drs/hidheadlamps)

Instead, install an upgraded wiring loom and relay system on the back of your lights.  This will give you a substantial improvement in your lighting.

Im tempted to do the whole kit mod - doesnt seem too expensive (120 quid ish) i guess it depends on the improvement gained? anybody had any experience?
