Ah i see now, would it not be just a resistor of some sort?
Excuse my ignoracne of the Mk2 systems.
You are right but problems also include the flickering of the lights for some reason on the cheaper setup's too.
I personally have brought my HID kit so when i change between cars in the future (mine is a 3 year company car ) i can take it with me as it works with the following :-
Audi - A4, A6 2005 on
Audi - A3 2002 on (you will kill wiper motor with other kits)
BMW – E39, E46, E90, 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 series and X3 and X5 models
Jaguars – All S Types and post 2002 other models
Landrover – Post 2003 Ranger Rover, Freelander and Discovery
Mercedes - Post 2002 all models inc A, B, C, E and G Class
Porsche - Cayanne, Cayman, Boxster
Peugeot 407 (you will kill wiper motor with other kits)
Saab 9-3 2002 on
Skoda - Octavia and Superb post 2005
Seat all Post 2005, Toledo,
Ibiza,
Vauxhall - Vectra C, Sigmumn, Corsa C, Mk 5 Astra
Volkswagen 2004 on Golf V, Passat, Polo, Touareg, Touran and Transporter
Volvos – Post 2002 C30, C70, S40, S60, S80, S70, V50, V70, XC70, XC90
Most of these cars are (obviously not Porsche) on the approved company car list so I will get the use of them over time
