Head lights/HIDs

[Travis]

They are very much plug and play mate, and my beam pattern was excactly the same after fitting the HID's, so I wouldn't know about adjusting them.

And Krishen that's the same seller I bought off, but not too sure what bulb fitment your ibiza is, mine were H7, but I think yours might be different.

 

[BigLad]

Yeah, the wires you plug your bulb in to go into the ballast, the wires that come out go in to the xenon bulb!!!Thats it!!!

Are these the ones that I would need for my 1.4??

Or would I need the ones for the high beam? Or would it be worth even going for a set of the Bi-Xenon ones??

Sorry Im new to the whole HID thing.

Right found the above HID's. Can somone please confirm that these are the ones everyone is talking about? Looks like a bargain at that price.

They are the ones I have just fitted mate...

Ok. Cool. Have just purchased them. Can't wait.

Next question is where do you purchase the number plate and side light leds from?

 

[CraigW]

I think my going to get a set from the place in the link Krishen put up, one thing though, will I need low or hi beam or a set of bi-xenon as i have a 1.4

Thanks.

www.ultraleds.co.uk is the place for LED's.

I have these as sidelights: http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/ultimate-501t10194-watt-ultra-xenon-white-p-1677.html

They are more expensive than the others, but I went through 3 or four of the "normal" ones and they just kept flickering because they were so close to the headlights, they were getting fried. The ones I linked to are designed to withstand the heat and have not failed me yet, the others went in a matter of weeks.
The ones I have for the numberplate/interior light/boot, are no longer listed on the site, but these should do the trick http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/37mm-leds-festoon-output-cool-white-p-1496.html

Cheers for the links. A silly question but the prices they have listed, are they per bulb or for a set?

 

[Travis]

per bulb I'm afraid

Some might state for a pair, but like I said the expensive ones are much better and do last longer.
These are my sidelights:

They are a good match for the 6000K HID's

 

[Krishen]

Cheers Travis. They look awsome as does you car fella.

Also can anyone confirm that for the mk2 the side lights are 501?

 

[Travis]

I'm pretty sure 501 is a general fitment for just about every sidelight ever! lol
Worth checking though I suppose.

And thank you for your comments

To be honest 501 sounds familiar. Anyway too late now, iv ordered them lol.

Cheers for the help.

 

[Travis]

haha nice one, no worries mate. Get some pics up when everything is fitted.

 

[CraigW]

501 is right for the sidelights. The bulbs for the rear number plate lights are also 501.

I still dont know if i should go for low or high beam hids or a set of bi-xenon ones what do people suggest?

 

[crezz]

low beems

 

[CraigW]

low beems

Is that what you would recommend then mate. Im thinking of low beams cos bi-xenon are expensive. Think I will order a set sometime in the near future.

 

[crezz]

yeah low beems as you will get the use of them all the time and dont have to keep dipping them

 

[Krishen]

Yeh like crezz said, low beam, so you get the most use.

 

[CraigW]

6000K or 8000K is my next question?? Im undecided between the two. Im thinking 6000K though as thats what most people go for.
