Cheers for teh photos, it was more rain i was worrying about as you could be extra carful when adding washer etc. I take it these are waterproof by the way? I was also under the impression that HID's last almost the lifetime of the car?
Yup... all the connections and the boxes themselfs seem to be wayer proof...
And I was lead to beleive the same, that they last the lifetime, if not longer than the car.
All I was saying before was that I think the HID's are SO good, that I would have had my monies worth out of them within a year. Anything more would be a bonus, so if they last "forever" then they are WELL worth it!

did it yesterday! 
wat a night mare!
had to remove the bumper to take the headlamps off AGAIN as the bulbs would not fit in the projectors!
so just like rob don i had to completely take the head lamps apart, drill the holes bigger and refit the head lamps and use more silicon sealant to seal it.
a LOT of hassel!
and as a result (cos i rushed it!) the lights arnt as water tight as before... im getting slightly more condensation in them now (yes i sealed them well!... well i thought so!)
the results....
WOW!
wat a difference!
if these were fitted to the OE headlamps they would make such a huge improvement!
im also tempted to do that!
but i love the look of the projector lamps!
they look super cool 2! soooo much brighter than before
il make a new thread 2mo night with pics of it!

Sweet .... sorry you had to take the bumper off....
Note too self .... install HIDS AND Projectors together, in order to only take bumber off once.

Was it in their care? Were they working on it? Or had you just parked it there?J@mes said:i would do a review of them 2nite but i feel so tired and GUTTED!
had my car keyed at the stealers today (Parkstone, Leigh on sea!) and they are not accepting responsability for it!
![[:@]](/forums/styles/seatcupra/oldforumsmileys/furious.gif "Furious [:@]")
so as a result i will be taking them to the small claims court!

What are the details dude?

Sorry
they asked for the car to be dropped off at about 9ish am.
dropped it off at about 10am and they didnt start work on it until over 4 hours later!
the car was parked literally right outside their place (THEY HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO CUSTOMER PARKING WATSOEVER!) and they left a msg on my phone at 2.20 saying they had noticed a scratch on the door!
as far as i am concerned, by taking the keys they became the legal custodian of the car, hence its their responsibility if anything happens to it!
i never signed anything and also i thought it was common practice for dealers to mark down on a diagram any marks on a car and get the owner to sign it so "issues" like this cannot happen!
they are not willing to cooperate and as a result i will be taking them to the small claims court!

If they had your keys, you are right, they were in legal custody of it ... so I would say it is their responsability. :w4nk:ers
