If you want a quick solution fit Phillips night breaker bulbs these are an improvement over standard. other than that search HID upgrade Original Member Pie n Pea Club.

projector plus hid
i know this might sound a bit anal but was thinking of combining lamps and hid upgrade Rolling Eyes

have hid kit sorted. not ordered yet though as seller (hid direct) is trying to push new slim kit which includes retractable bulbs
Quote:
we do a new 50w H4-3 slim kit, very similar to the one you've mentioned which i would recommend. These kits are supplied with bi-xenon H4 telescopic (retracting) bulbs.


not sure about beam pattern on projector lamps as seller claims they suitable for left and right hand drive. I'm assuming that there is some form of adjustment on the projector side of things and am waiting for clarification from seller.

I've read here that some have done the hid upgrade with clear glass lamps and would wonder how successful they are. my main driving is main and A roads.

any info greatly appreciated as previous experience of light upgrades was purely adding on spots of the shelf Embarassed
