HID kits - arrived today! horaah!

Have no idea, but he's here in Cornwall so i asked him... lol

Sam; "Just waiting for people to get back with me with prices so hopfully around the 10th ish"

Allright... this thread has been going on for too long now.

£1.99 at halfords could buy you these...



you get all the pulling power (if any) and none of the performance for a fraction of the price!!

Nuff said.

^^ Hmm not exactly the same thing me thinks!

As bro said, waiting on some more prices and details (obviously not quick over Xmas) and plan on putting few options to you guys and ordering around 10th Jan!

Dont suppose anyone has come across just the bulbs for these kits? Just had one blow

H4 bulb chris? I'll see if my mate can get one. What rating 5k?

6k. Would be awesome if they could dude

sounds good to me nellers!

Sam...i'm affraid few people are as cool as you

My mate says he can order bulbs through his work. I have asked him to get prices etc when he goes back.

I got bulbs here Chris.

Drop me a pm.

They stock the 6000k colour bulb which is fine for most and I need to confirm whether they have the 5000k kit in stock for Stu (if you're ok with this k colour Stu)?

If this is ok with everyone I will start to collect payments and get them ordered and sent out?!

Yeh that deal sounds spot on to me sam nice work

I know you can get cheaper kits on ebay but thought a company with someone on a phone is better than hong kong rip offs? May work out cheaper but at what cost if it doesn't turn up or work or breaks?!

I agree mate always good to have that phoneline connection. If everyones happy ill send my payment over

Just wait for everyone to agree they're happy as don't want to make a decision for people without them giving consent (plus then I'd have to refund people money they'd already sent...which is a pain in the arse)!

Once everyone is happy I'll send a PM to each person about payment and we'll get this bad boy done and dusted!

Dean can you match/beat that?

If not then i'm in

Spoken to Dean and he can do literally a couple of quid cheaper per kit but can't supply anything less than 6k for the H4-3 bulbs (so not the 5k or less we were after) and can't do the H4-1 bulb which I'd need and possibly Jamesy for his Lude as well if he joins in the buy!

Ah fair enough!

But yeah i'm in, just hope they can do the 5k.

Will ring them to confirm if they have any H4-3 kits in stock in 5k but they should do.

Just need to find out the bulb size in Jo's Del Sol now....come on Jamesy get your arse in gear!

Yeah they seem to have a good rep across quite a few forums when I was looking!

Pm sent to those involved. If money is in by end of Sunday will get them ordered Mon!

Payment Sent

Gonna have to have a word with my supplier. I'm gutted i lost out on this one! maybe the next one eh?!?

Yeah definitely mate. Price was good but it was only not being able to do h4-1 bulb and 5k kelvin kits that lost it! Hopefully the next one you can sort for us!

Ordered today so should be with me by tomorrow/wed and then i'll bring them to the show on Sunday!

Ace might be going for another

Thats good. I might have one depending on what peoples look like.

I will be having a set at a later date

Horaah, kits have already arrived...20hours after I ordered them. They look good and have got an invoice for everybody involved should you need to get in contact with hid direct. Will wear my Santa's outfit and bring them Sunday!

Ace! Will get it on the Disco saturday afternoon

No!

Thats a must to tell us....

And the quality of the HID's seem spot on, and seriously cant knock the delivery times... under 20 hours to cornwall!

Your bodgeneer grade should be up in the 90s

Well I had the choice of many tools, a welder, grinder, multiple tool boxes of various tools and I picked the trusty....hammer and cable ties!

well why wouldn't you lol, you would have had to get them anyway why faff around with the other tools!

what was wrong with it?

Sam, how sealed do the ECU and ballast look?

Was just under the disco bonnet and the back of the lights are caked in mud from the weekend

Looked for you this evening stu and should be fine with a little silicone sealant!

Ace. Do they do parts of the kit separately? Just so i know when i do inevitably drown one

lmao oh dear...so whats involved in fitting them then? I've got the week off after autosport so may fit them myself if i'm bored stiff. failing that and they look an arse I'll pay MrTwos to do it

Old bulbs out, new in, Ballasts placed, wire in.

I hope.

are they completely plug and play as some kits are and some arn't I found was the case.

Mine only has a postive from the battery, and earth (to chassis), other than that are plug and play. Its justing finding space in the pop up to home it all...

lol I know a guy on IMOC mounted his in the spare wheel well on the MR2 so hopefully the HID direct kits have enough wire.

Or wait for mine to be done at mrtwos and copy the wiring lol

HID's are a piece of piss to wire up, could do it in about 15 minutes, wiring it all nicely. Only thing that might need extending is the power cable, but then I don't know where the battery is on an MR2.

That's if they're like my kit though, can't see why not though!

As said should be easy enough to install! In my kit I don't even have a loom to go to batt as it's only the main beam so don't need the extra power....even easier to wire up!
