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!
Here's the link if your interested at all

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
