Car looks fab HID kit looks pretty nice too, not a massive fan of aftermarket HID's but your pictures make me want some

[Enty]

Thankyou!

Yeah, they look much better than the standard yellow bulbs I think. Plus they're not blindingly bright or blue, they're just perfect so I'm very happy with them, money well spent! Would deffiantly reccommend

Hiya Zoe
Are you still on VW insurance? Have you had to tell em your running hid lights? I just got a quote of £1495.45 from swinton insurance for

Wheels
Suspension
Tints
Lights.

Brentacre won't touch a standard car but with mods £1159.99

[Enty]

I'm still on the insurance yeah, and I haven't told them about anything I've done to the car lol

I'm not planning on doing anything major like wheels/lowering until it runs out and I'm paying for my own, but everything I've done so far I think isn't really too big of a deal?

[CANDYMAN]

Just found out that with Swinton insurance that after i make 4 payments i get £650 cash back Then i can go into store and hand it over to them and they lower the premium to £49.00 a month the insurance is with Highway, the same company Brentacre use but with no cash back.

Just a few snowy pics I took yesterday on my way home from work

The lights look a bit yellow but I guess it's because of the camera having to cope with all the white! (it is only a rubbish blackberry camera lol)

Nice pics Zoe.

[Enty]

Hiya Zoe

How do you find driving at night now? Is there much improvement now you have HID?

I'd say the light is much crisper/whiter! Can only really notice when you're somewhere without street lamps though.

Defiantly like them more than standards though.

Plus when driving on motorways/dual carriageways, people seem to move over for you to overtake! Probably think its some big fast BMW or whatever, then the little polo goes flying by haha!


Also update for now is that I bought one of the Audi chrome exhaust tips! It looks much nicer, although I'm a bit unsure of how to fit it properly!
I have got it on now, but it has these spikey ended clips inside which hold it in place, but you can see them! So maybe I will have to clamp them down or something...
Will post pics when I get chance

I agree with you on that point above...driving at night is so much better with a HID kit fitted, the road ahead it lit up much better and you can see further, barely ever need to flick on full beam. Also the point about other cars moving over for you is so true! I went past a group of R-drivers last night and you could see them braking and being more cautious cause they thought I was a police car (as they all have xexon bulbs around here). Its like having more authority on the road :L

Hiya Zoe

Yeah it would be good to see your Audi tip Is it pushed on enough?

[Donny]

All you do with the tips are hit it with palm of your hand really hard, fitted loads just abit of brute force. they're just push fit.
