arite cool,

Will the cheaper ones manage being a full beam though?

with HIDs taking a second or two to boot up, wouldnt they struggle when flashing?

they flash on a boot up, so they work for flashing once. Cheaper ones may work, but i cant by any means guarantee it, or the safety of them.

yeh yeh, well it was mainly the fogs that i wanted HIDing, but that doesnt look to feasible anymore, the fulls arent so important cos i dont use them that much, and the bulbs i have for them are pretty good anyway.

I had my cambelt changed at 57000, I dont think you need to at 50.

I had a mobile mechanic do it for £80 or something, total. He was going to replace the water pump but he said its like new so there is no need, so he didnt.

Incidently I have some phillips +80% bulbs which are a lot better than the normal ones, there white and you can see them on a light day etc. There very good.
