As title, my golfs had a hid kit fitted and it's blown a bulb, any ideas where to get new ones? Many thanks

Thanks for the quick reply! That's the same number bulb that the ballast says I need, although the bottom of my bulbs are different?! Seem to have a different connection?

Actually most chavs go for 8k and above which is less bright than the more common 6k. They are not professionally fitted with auto levelers so when they go over a bump they blind people, this is why they are illegal and why your insurance would be void if the other driver said your lights were the reason they crashed into you.
