They're just the headlights. You'll still need the bulbs and ballasts, etc which means more expense.Item numbers 220152621419 and 20152629079. £360 delivered
At least they have the reflectors and maybe the self levelling motors. But yea, still mimumum £50 on top for the bulbs and ballasts
they will have self leveling motors and reflectors. I got a HID kit i would use rather then the standard components. Think i might go for them.
My uncle (who works for a VAG parts specalist in swindon) couldn't get them cheeper then £290 each
And it is SOOOO illigal to run HID'S with no projector lamps. (not haveing ago, i just want to do it as legal as possible)
I will be asking my step-uncle if my lights will pas its MOT later this year as it is and to allin the light even though they seem okay, no one flashed me yet!

This in most cases will mean Projectors. Sorry Should have been more clear, I mean not useinging projectors on the IBIZA is very illigal.
aimez = based on that you will not pass an MOT. but if the MOT centre is not aware then thay might just pass it.
Crap, just sheer crap.
At no point does it say projector lamps. They are not a requirement at all. It is not illegal to run without projectors. Renualt do it without in the laguna, honda in the civic and Volvo with the V70.
My car has HIDs and has passed MOT twice without issue and with good patterns. That makes my car legal. I have never been flashed (apart from going over the brow of a hill which is the same problem for halogen and xenon alike) and always make sure alignement is correct and lenses are clean
no need to be rude mate.... if you read the article which is the legal requirements for the UK it does say it is ILLIGAL to retro fit HID's.... HID’S can only be fitted in adapted headlights. for the IBIZA this is the projector lights.
some cars such as the ones you mentioned, might not use projectors but the headlights will be adapted for the HID.
and as i also said, legally is should fail the MOT but most placed don't check or just think it is standard on your car.
I am not having a go at anyone just making people aware of the legal requirements on HID's. I mean even once i have fitted the projector lights and HID's there still illegal because i won't have washers on them.
I am only trying to hightlight legal stuff as people should know it beofre they going doing things like this.

I've seen a civic with HIDs and it has projectors
They're the older Civics with the projectors i think. The new one with the monobrow don't have projectors but their lights do look very xenonish.
to be honest Phil this has been covered on many thread on here before I think 90% of people on here have heard it all before and are aware. If it has passed the MOT who cares TBH?!
Anyway people stop ruining my thread with the same old HID talk!
Before with Halfords Brilliance and Ring blue side lights

They aren't as blue as I thought 8000k would be either...just the right colour I think
they get a bit more blue after they've warmed up, I just went out and took that pic just now and the car is cold now. Plus the flash makes the colour look different.
