Looks like the one i had! not bad price i guess.....

are these hard to fit????

I would only recommend 5k H7R HIDS4U kits

I've had bad experiences with cheaper kits, the H7R bulbs made by HIDS4U are 10x better than any other H7R bulb made by others

let me get my FR next weekend and I'll put the Philips Vision 100% + bulbs in and let you know how they go.

Is it a non-xenon car at the moment? If so, the kit is probably not road legal IIRC due to not having self levelling headlight units... I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong!

I wouldnt do it, i know its tempting but IMO your better off just uprating your bulbs, as the kit will be illegal on your car and from the ones i have seen on the way to work recently unless your very lucky dazzle everyone in front or driving towards you.

I bought leon hid lights from eBay.. Yes they are amazing but are illegal and they kept on going wrong! I've had to buy halfords best lights to put them in, I cant find the Phillips ones, where do I get them from?

 

[GainfulShrimp]

I think I bought the Philips bulbs from Auto Bulbs Direct or Power Bulbs (both online).

Go for osram nightbreaker plus. Highly recommend them. Had Philips xtreme before, osram wins hands down. Not white white, but much whiter than standard bulbs and light is just amazing, road markings seem to glow.
Wouldn't go for hid kits, as they are illegal. Any accident and you are uninsured driver.

They're already illegal, it's just that they won't automatically fail an MOT yet (unless because of crap beam pattern).

oh then my mistake ! doesnt mean i wont fit them! you get a warning by the police before you get done for them! And i aint had a warning yet! Increases the presence of the car 10fold !

 

[tinky]

And 10fold increase in blinding oncoming traffic. A no no from me. Just use osram I mentioned before, not as good as hid, but legal, don't blind people and more than adequate.
