For all of you who need to get HID conversions professionally installed at approximately £145 per set of beams, why don't you contact:

illegal

especially if you install them into non-projector type headlights as the beam pattern will be terrible

6000K is the brightest one can have (without projector lenses) being diomand white.
With projector lenses 8000k is possible.
Both 'legal'.

If you get the projector lens what's the beam pattern like Rhyso? Only thing I'll be missing is this auto level stuff as the washers came with my winter pack.

Been toying with the idea but the last thing I want to be as a dangerous annoying tw@t on the road.

I know that mate ;)

But I cant stand it when a cowboy job conversion of someone trying to put xenons on their car drives past me, not really dealt much with HID conversions so was wondering if these projector headlamps do the job?
