makes we lol when people moan about hids on non projector headlamps, they were fine on my clio, pattern and kick up were perfect.

Did you have to remove the headlights to fit btw?

well aint been flashed ONCE YET , or got flashed for a year when they were fitted to my type r so there you go . and beam pattern on the mot beam setter is perfect too .

if i wanna see in the dark i will , if you wanna buy me a set of projector headlights then go ahead if its gonna stop you moaning and im not the only person who has them fitted to normal headlights either and wont be the last !

no point in me posting pics as i dont have projectors so will prob dazzle people when they look at the pics .

no done it in situ , bit of an arse as not much room and you need to drill a 25mm hole in rear cover to route wiring etc but worth it !
