Depends. Do you just want the look, or do you actually want to see?

If you just want the look, get some of those "Xenon HID super bulbs" or whatever off eBay. They are tinted blue, but don't give out much light.

If you want to see as well, spend some £££ and get some of the philips blue vision bulbs, or the halfords super brilliance ice blue ones. Not cheap, but work pretty well.

But, the actual HID kits aren't too expensive either, and you can see brilliantly.

I have a set on both my cars and have never looked back, it may seem a bit exspensive for a set of bulbs but they last longer too !!!

 

just bought some hids and fitted them the other day, cost me £35 posted from hongkong, and the improvement is worth every penny. worthwhile IMO.

'ken hell, those are cheap. Only £10 more then I payed for me bulbs. I is tempted. Any pics of the output?

 

I wouldn't bother at all with the Xenon super white things from eBay.
I've said before, once driving, neither me nor my girlfriend could tell I had my lights on, they're a joke.

 

I paid £70 posted for mine over 2 years ago, well worth that in my opinion, I got the 10k variants !!!

Nice bonnet vents :dddc: <3

 

What bonnet vents ??? :twak:

 

Oh, sorry mate I must be seeing things, it's this old age you see.

 

Don't worry babe, come here for a cuddle !!! :grouphug:

 

no ****?.......

 

C'mon, feel the luuuruuuvvve !!!

 

i got the ZR aswel, im going to put HIDs on but the only thing is i noticed everyone just puts the HID on the main beam, im going to splash out and put HIDs on both the main and lows, i dont want my lights looking white on one side then yellow on the other, im going with 10,000K ones which are nearly the brightest you can get, does anyone know if these are legal? i havent heard yet that any HIDs no matter the intesity being illegal.

 

I thought the lower the temperature the brighter the light, the higher temperatures (e.g. 10,000K) give the blue-ish colour but have less illumination, about 30% less than the 4300K (which are a slightly yellowish white).

I have to start saving as the 200 uses H4 dual beams so looking at £70 for a set. Had a subaru imprezza courtesy car last week and it was totally rubbish apart from the headlights which were awesome.

 

10k are blue, and are pants IMO, 6k is the way to go, clean crisp white light!!!

 

Mine only have a slight blue tint, they are more like a natural daylight bulb, very clear light output, but it also depends where you got it from too !!!



I would not waste your money puttung it in the high beam as HID bulbs come on dim and need 20 - 30 second to warm up and get to optimum operating temperature, mine flicker once when they do so !!!

 

serious? so if i get 10k there will be less light? i see all them cars with bright whitish blue hids and they look sick, i want something like that...what about 8k??

 

6k are white/blue looking, but emit a clean white light.

 

halfrauds are doing there Extreme brilliance lamps at buy one get one free i picked up some for the wifes ZR160 at £23.99 for two....does the wife and there 90% brighter than standard lamps....just a thought

 

Well, for £25 I just got 2xH1 and 2xH7 Nightbreakers . . . . Had them on my last car and they are much better.
