I bought some of these HIDs off this seller, they come within a week. I got the ones advertised in Auzzie dollars, looking at my bank statement this morning and it converted to £27 in all. Bargain

Got mine today

Gives me something to do over the holidays.

How come they are so cheap then? i thought they were about 100 quid? Do you have to cut the headlights to get them fit?

 

[ganda_cupra]

Only have to cut the cover you remove to get to the bulbs. Reason being is to put wiring through it, comes with a grommet and everything need so still watertight.

 

[Banksy 1]

Where about do you place the ballasts? Do you have to drill anything to get them fixed?

 

[CupraElliott]

No, they come with big 3M sticky pads to stick them down with. People mount them underneath the headlight in the chassis rail.

 

[Banksy 1]

Oh right sorted then. didnt want to be drilling my inner wing thats all. Will be ordering that kit soon then.

 

[Riko]

Think i may buy a set of the beauties myself after xmas! Well impressed.

 

[Riko]

btw where can i get a set of the HID foglights?

 

[Mat]

i fitted my balast to an existing screw on the drivers side, and used salf tapping screws on the passenger side

 

[GeorgeF]

same as me didnt fancy sticking them down.

 

[CupraElliott]

If your not putting the ballast under the headlight, there's no reason to remove the bumper to get the headlight out, right?
