is a HID kit on your full beam such a great idea?

i mean, there are a lot of times when you want a quick blast of light between cars or something, surely you dont wanna be waiting for it to power up properly every time?

They can work, because HID kits normally have a short blast of bright light before reducing in brightness and then powering up properly.

Alex has them, best to talk to him,

I dont think they're a necessity though, if your main beams are set up correctly you won't have to worry about HID fulls, just buy a good set of normal bulbs,

funnily anough I'm selling some!

thats all I've got sorry, They're not installed on my car any more.

The match isn't that bad, they're a really good beam (really bright!), they match my Xenons, but I have a feeling they may need replacing soon.

ALOT better than standard bulbs

Alloys on order

HID main beams are amazing - they are ok to flash with, as the warm up causes a bright flash anyhow. After that they take about 10 secs to get to full brightness which isnt too bad at all.

Ill get a pic of how much I can see with them tonight!

The ones on ed had the wrong tyres and he wasn't really up for splitting them with the alloys, so I jsut bought the same ones but brand new instead
