Wise moveanyone have the philips bluevision side lights?
yes -see your own HID thread here
but IMHO the Philuips blue vision side lights don't make much of a difference, I only fitted them as I got them free.
looking good sonic -got the 6000k myself. I think these days these imported kits are so cheap ranging from £60-£145 that for the visibilityand look its a great move!
Looks very nice! I have a 6,500 kit fitted to my car and I love them.
I can also get my hands on some very nice KDG kits if anyone is interested? Made in Korea (not China as many of the cheap kits are).

can i suggest hiding the ballast unit a bit better on the drivers side
wouldnt fancy leaning on it on a cold night with the bonnet up
or pouring screenwash/water over it

Drivers side is the hardest to hide i've found. Passenger side is easy as it sits under the battery on the battery tray. I have cable tied mine to the washer bottle! Very heath robinson!

not too much of an issue, just be careful lol
I ordered a set of these Bosch (malaysian company not german bosch !!) from ebay. Although they look a great package, the idiots sent 8000K when I ordered 6000Ks !!
I havent installed them as dont want 8Ks.
Typically they have a uk contact answering emails (called Rob) but he writes in very broken english so imagine Rob is a very made up name !!!
Firstly wanted me to send my kit back (at my expense) and I told him go jump. Said he could transfer 5quid into my paypal to cover courier or arrange a courier drop-off of new bulbs and pick my 8Ks up at same time.
Then came the export courier excuses.
Told him to pull is finger out, stop messing me around else I'd file an ebay and paypal dispute against him. He said he'd send me the 6K kit. Still not yet rec'd. If I aint got it by tuesday then i will file the dispute -- the kit i have is marked 8000 in marker pen, 8000k on the box code and 8000 on each bulb holder !!!
Lets see how we progress !!!!! At least he does answer his daily emails (albeit in gibberish)

Just stick the 8k's in
they look ace !
still its a good kit and for the price you can't really complain.
I am well happy with mine, even come with rubber grommets built onto the wires so you can cut a hole in the back of your headlight covers that fit on the back so they are fully shielded.
By far one of the best mods i have done on mine.
Just a shame you have the wrong kit.
It will be worth the wait trust me.
First thing you notice is...."the reflection from that roadsign/hi vis jacket/wide load thingy on back of truck is a bit bright"
and then..."is that my headlights lighting up the road 5 cars in front?" .... <headlights off to test the theory>..."oh yeah so it is !!! "

absolute doddle
you keep your standard headlight units and the new HID bulbs fit into place where the normal bulbs go
all wiring is plug and play, the hardest bit is finding somewhere to mount the HID controller boxes with the limited amount of wire you have to play with.
not rocket science by any means
