Hid kit

Post by Shmick93 »

Can anyone recommend a decent hid kit, I brought one on eBay but would require a considerable amount of work. Image

I think they all need a bit of work to make the holders fit mate, there is a piece on here somewhere on how to make holders,

Thanks I'll have a look, the only logic I can see so to drill out the centre and glue it in place

Yeh I'm pretty sure that's exactly what you need to do,I have a HID kit for mine but haven't got around to fitting it as it's a bit of messing about and I don't seem to get the time !

Get the holders then when you want to swap back it'll be a lot easier.

I bought a pair of holders from VW and then cut middle out of old ones to fit the bulb in, quite a bit of trial n error but works fine.
