As some of the MK2 owners know, fitting HID's can cause all sorts of issues to the resetting of clocks and lights flashing etc... Heres how to wire the HID's so that they run off a relay mounted in the engine bay. You will need to do this to both sides of the circuit eg: left and right...

May sound like a silly question...but everyone allways says to get your headlights alligned after installing HIDs, but from the guides etc I have read and 100's of threads I have searched I cant see why? Surely it's just the same as changing a regular bulb? because even when installing the...

Ok, I've just spent the morning fitting my HID's, all tucked away nicely underneath the head lights, but when turn them on, the drivers side is blowing the 7.5A fuse under my dash. The passenger one is fine, any one had a similar problem, there's no point me replacing the fuse like-for-like as...

Hi all, Just a quick one to let you know of another happy customer of Diannes-shop on Ebay :) Took me 2 hours to install (taking my time & figuring it all out lol) - but all are working and looking VERY nice. Mounted the drivers side ballast on the existing screw by the light (upside...

Hey guys. Can anyone here give me some quick advice on fitting some HIDs. I've positioned the HID bulb into place and it only fits one way as designed I presume. The trouble is, due to the wiring out the back of the bulb I can't reattach the pressure clip to hold it in place. I can't...
