Yeah, they do..

Just put your old bulbs back in, can leave the ballasts where they are but just disconnect them..

Thanks mate, yeah i think the 6000 ones seem the best not too white with a tint of blue and give off great light

you got any pictures mate??

4th February 2009, 20:42

i have some they are really good im buying some for the fogs now :Y:

4th February 2009, 20:49

Here's some pics for you..

Not the best but all I can find for now..

^

Look really blue here, but they aren't.. Just the camera..

The 6000K ones are the best.. They just look like the HIDS that all new Audi's BMW's Lexus' etc have..

Definatly the ones to go for..

As for fitting, they come with two ballasts, These need to be placed in the engine bay.. Not that hard to hide them away in a Saxo engine bay.. I put one of them in the fuse box hidden away

I suggest going for the high/low beem ones as if not, then the high beam isn't HID if you get me..

This is the website I got mine from... Think you mentioned that these were the ones offering you the deal anyway

http://www.hids-direct.co.uk/

Anymore questions just drop me a PM..

Hope I helped

4th February 2009, 20:51

HIDs direct are cheaper and most people are happy with their service so why would you want to get them form that eBay shop?

4th February 2009, 20:51

It wont be a crappy cheapo kit for sure as i want a decent one too

i think anything below 60 quid and i wouldnt classs them as a good kit

Good. I like your pics too! May sound abit dumb, but is there no way we can have sidelights, low beam & high beam all HID? Instead of just the two?

Lol thanks

Yeah, the kit I bought was the Low and High beam one (the £74.99 one on this page) - http://www.hids-direct.co.uk/hid-products.html

However, as you can see in the close up pic of my headlight, there is a small orange side light bulb on lol...

Not really noticeable unless you are looking for it but would be better if it was HID also...

Maybe I could just buy like a white one or something..

Never use sides on there own anyway..

The ones UK suppliers sell are also made in Hong Kong so the cheapo ones are probably made in the same factory.

Just thought I'd let you know.

If you want QUALITY then go for the MTEC kit but they cost £135 iirc.

yeah i've just had a gander, but the £75 does look good. Have you noticed any difference with the battery, does it drain quickly?

Is the kit made in hong long?

More info please mate? Link to this mtec kit?

4th February 2009, 21:07

Haven't noticed any difference with the battery mate and i've had them installed for a good few weeks now..

The actual kit is made in Japan, as when I ordered he was awaiting delivery..

It isn't any foreign shit though.. I'm being honest, i'd say if it was crap.. Not like I work for the company or anything lol..

I've never heard of this MTEC kit before but by all means if it is really really good and you have the exta £ go for it.. But I really can't fault the £74.99 kit from Hids-Direct.. They have an ebay account with 100% feedback too iirc, the products are good and the value is good too.

Drop me a pm if you want anymore pictures of the ballasts, box it came in etc etc..

When i was looking around Hid direct seamed the cheapest / quality comprimise that i would go for. Would definately be in on this but its too early for me. Maybe in a few months time

4th February 2009, 21:39

Dont buy for HIDs direct, theyre kits break pretty quickly. Me and James (mario_89) on here have both had a set as have a few other people I know and theyve all broken in some way or another. And the company dont reply to emails when you try and send them back. So stay away.

Also 'turborevs', theyre ones are wank too

Pred, if you could get the phone number off this guy so I could talk to him, say you need it incase any details come up or something, Id greatly appriciate it

4th February 2009, 21:45

Just a thought, these are same and cheaper:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=310111260197

4th February 2009, 21:49

The kit I got cost me £35 and never had any problems with it (its H7 though so not hi/lo).

4th February 2009, 21:51

im interested but cannot pay till end of month!!!

is this a problem

I know 3 people with Hids from HID Direct not including myself and we have experienced no problems..

They responded to my e-mails pretty quickly lol!

Maybe you and your friend were a bit unlucky

4th February 2009, 21:55

Don't see why they wouldn't but probably best to double check with an expert..

I've heard they melt the inner casing with angel eyes though so those with angel eyes may have an issue..

4th February 2009, 23:29

guy i know that bought his H4's from HID-Direct had 3 sets through them as the hi/lo slider kept sticking... eventually got them to swap for H7's as he changed his car lol

5th February 2009, 00:14

pred i AM intrested but would need to no a final price, when i would need to pay etc etc etc before i can say for definate

5th February 2009, 09:41

I would be in, in a few months time.. As im so skint atm.. ill keep checking back

5th February 2009, 09:48

I bought the 8000k 50w kit from Hids-Direct and have had no problems with them what so ever. Never been pulled by the cops either, very little difference between the 6000k and 8000l it seems. Really good quality kits from Hids-Direct!

Delivery was also very quick!

P.s Any HID kit will fail an MOT not for being too blue but due to the fact that saxos dont come factory fitted with HID lights, dont have washers for the lenses and also dont have electronic levelling for the beam pattern for the lights.

They normally fail MOT on beam paten, colour, to slow to light up and a few other things.

On the other hand they are illegal because they don't comply with ECE or BS standard and so are illegal as defined in the Road Saftey Act and Road Traffic Act.

5th February 2009, 14:01

Entirely up to people if they wantto go for them, it is at your own risk, but never heard many people having a problem with cops now

as for mot very simple to change over for standard lights and even some places will just pass them

Plug and play yes, but if not its very easy to install ill even do a guide for it when i get mine

The 10% off on hid direct will be on any kit but i am trying to sort a advertising with us out, and maybe just discount for all the time so will update when i can

5th February 2009, 14:11

Ok another reply for the 59.99 kits on ebay, we can get £5 pound off, tbh i think the kit doesnt look up to scratch looks cheap imo

There are only a few places in China producing these low cost kit most are the same but just labelled up differently. Buy a big enough order and you can get them from the B2B. You can get whatever making you like printed on them as well. You can even get them boxed up as Osram or Bosch if you like even though there blatantly not. Normally people just get fake safety and approval marks printed on them as brand will normally take you strait to court and have the money to follow though with it.

5th February 2009, 23:43

If they take a H4 bulb they will mate, not sure on the melting problems people have had on angel eyes though

Ok i have contacts some buyers of the 59.99 kit a few saxo owners too, asked them about quality and performance of the item to get some perspective of this kit

this is a good kit the brightness is unreal 5 out of 5

6th February 2009, 01:39

Another customer for the 59.99 kit from 1stcarparts

My left mouse button isnt woking so had to get a screen shot instead

6th February 2009, 08:05

those £59.99 0nes look good to me, my mate got some on his vts and his were that price off ebay, could be the same seller. How could i find out about this angel eye melting business lol?

6th February 2009, 08:13

I also have a mate with the £59.99 on his VTS and they look really good in my opinion

6th February 2009, 12:08

The £59.99 ones are perfect quality... they are the ones i bought.

Never had a problem with them, full mounting brackets and bolts included and very clear fitting instructions!

Bargain at that price tbh

Good luck

6th February 2009, 12:10

As Pm'd pred !

6th February 2009, 13:26

so if everyone is happy with the £59.99 ones then lets go for that, that price is pretty cheap but more discount is always better

6th February 2009, 13:34

10% discount of 89.99 still isnt cheaper than £59.99 lol

6th February 2009, 23:56

Ok guys well heres some more comments on them, they seem up to the job i suppose

Ill ask about more discount if we get more people

the first reply up there ^^^ says the main beam is halogen

Thoguht this was a Hi/Lo beam kit, meaning both the dipped AND main beam we both HID??

May be worth clearing this up just to be 100% sure

I was thinking the same, the question needs to be asked pred please

7th February 2009, 01:25

Very true ill clear that up when i get a reply from him

Tbh id rather buy off hids direct, for payment issues and the kit looks of good quality imo, still have my doubts about the 59.99 kit, i think its too good to be true for that price

7th February 2009, 01:31

i agree with you pred, before all of this HID's Direct was going to be the place i was going to get them from anyways.

They look quality, and you allways have a company to go back to incase of any problems....

Im sure they do something like a 2 year warrenty aswell....

7th February 2009, 01:37

Have asked anyway, he will have about 3 emails off me now lol

But yeah hids direct im happy with there 74.99 kit is decent and well priced and we get 10% off which isnt bad at all, have asked for a bit more and for them to advertise on out site if neds be

do the HID Direct ones have the Hi and low beam as Xenon? rather then one xenon and one halogen.

is that £74.99 delivered? and is there still 10% to come off that?

The HID directones are HID for both hi and lo beam yes

not sure on your price question though

7th February 2009, 01:59

Its 6.50 postage from hids direct mark and yes 10% is stil lto come off price but im not sure if its off just the kit or both postage and kit combined

Still need to ask more questions though, be patient

7th February 2009, 02:03

just had a look on their site

£74.99 - HID's
£6.50 - Shipping

TOTAL = £81.49 - 10% = £73.34

a 15% discount would be better as then its under the £70 marker.

7th February 2009, 02:05

i agree.

Go for 15% pred, go on, push him. push him i tell you

7th February 2009, 02:10

tell him you have over 30k posts and im sure he'll give you the extra discount. however, if that doesnt work tell him you know me, lol

7th February 2009, 14:06

Good plan mark

7th February 2009, 16:00

Heres a few pics of the box i got:

7th February 2009, 16:08

Get them from HID Direct

They are quality

7th February 2009, 23:02

i was interested until i saw the price of replacement bulbs, £50 plus p+p!!!!
at that price i wouldn't want the bulbs to ever go! you may aswell buy a new kit!

7th February 2009, 23:28

I looked at that too but they last a hell of a lot longer than normal bulbs

ill deal with that when i come to it, dont always have to buy from them, and maybe by then they will have come down in price

7th February 2009, 23:36

jesus thats expensive for a bulb lol

8th February 2009, 08:15

ive had the same set of bulbs in my car for nearly 3 years now and they are still working fine

*goes to double check, lol*

8th February 2009, 08:48

ah thats not too bad then. Be gutted if one broke though lol

8th February 2009, 08:51

sorry just re-read my post. Thats 3 years on normal halogen bulbs not xenon, so if xenon as meant to last longer then there shouldnt be a problem

8th February 2009, 11:23

im just letting you know im on the list but get paid on 20th so im good after that date

cheers fellas

Well guys the 59.99 kit on ebay we cant get any more discount i did try plus i dont think we will want the kit anyway, its not hid on low and high beam just the one, so i think we could safely say that hids direct is best so far

8th February 2009, 20:37

push HID for more discount pred, you might feel a cheeky tw*t but all they can say is no.

8th February 2009, 20:46

And done mark, just waiting game again

11th February 2009, 10:11

i may be in this group buy not sure yet with all the legal questions that have been asked....a good friend of mine works for aceparts and his uncle owns it so im gonna ask about the discount direct to see what they give....

11th February 2009, 17:20

That would be ace baker thanks

Ok update from another compant which seems very promising indeed imo, the kit usually sells for 109.99, we would get 25% off with 10 orders, free delivery and a free set od xenon led sidelights worth about 8.99. The kits arent on the site yet and he said pro elite kits which sounds even better

and not made in chine so we know there gonna be quality.

I have emailed him back as we now have around 15 people see if i can get anymore off, i feel cheeky but you dont get anywere without haggling in life

, tbh im very swayed unless hids direct come back with a better offer (tbh there not very good for contacting), just waiting game to get the best deal for a top quality kit

Heres the email anyway

11th February 2009, 18:35

Sounds very promising there pred well done!

11th February 2009, 18:55

so from HID Direct they are £73.34 but from this new plac they are £84.99 but we get a free set of side lights?

tbh id rather have the extra £10 in my pocket and go for HID Direct

11th February 2009, 23:17

Yeah i know mark but i think the quality of the kits look good from this place, just rather have quality

Will decide when i get emails back from them both aing to haggle as much as i can, price is 82.49 from xenon shop too

11th February 2009, 23:24

im in on these. they just look the dogs...put me down pred

11th February 2009, 23:53

Still waiting on HIDs Direct

12th February 2009, 09:25

sweet, nice haggling there mate. Defo worth £75. bet them LED sidelights look good too

12th February 2009, 10:34

thats a good deal, very rare that you get free shipping

im already in anywy but this isthe best kit ive seen so far, hope it looks the same in the pics on there site as they do in real life

12th February 2009, 10:36

oops meant to ask what temp you going for, 6000K or 8000K?

12th February 2009, 10:49

6000k i think he said, there brighter arent they?

12th February 2009, 11:55

Well you get to choose whick bulb intensity you want guys

4300k is going to be the brightest and more white, the more k you go the more blue they get

heres a picture (doesnt show 4300 but thats what the options are on the site)

12th February 2009, 12:46

Come on people ive bartered for a quality kit, 75 quid all in with free sidelight bulbs, not a bad deal

12th February 2009, 12:48

mint deal imo.. Just need the cash quick now dont i lol. I like the 8000 but arent they illegal?? and will they melt angel eyes as im getting some in a few months

12th February 2009, 12:50

Yep im definatly still in! Can i ask though which color temp would be the best for vision? id rather be able to see alot more than have blue ones lol

12th February 2009, 12:52

i want legal, and ones that work in angel eyes. when are you thinking of ordering pred??

12th February 2009, 12:59

the 6000k is meant to be best for road use, 4300 will give you better brighter lighting but imo it will seem liek you have full beam on all the time

12th February 2009, 13:02

well 6000 will probs be best for legallity then?
and do you know if 6000 is ok with angel eyes?

12th February 2009, 13:05

Am not sure which angels have you got, did you post a thread on it???

12th February 2009, 13:10

no i didnt.. i havent got any yet,, im getting some in a few months before MOT.. I will be getting Smoked Mk2 Angel eyes

12th February 2009, 13:33

A think they may melt them mate, standards will be ok, but i think angel eyes well some are made of different materials, the working temperature on site says 105 degrees so am not sure if that means when it will work or operating temperature

Could ask the people who sell angel eyes what temperature rating there lights are

12th February 2009, 14:41

id go 6000K, stay legal on standards (would go 8000 but maybe its bit too much) and just spray headlight surrounds black (like ultra smoked ones).
6000

12th February 2009, 15:07

yeah pred mate im in

12th February 2009, 15:19

they fine in angels!? Cos on side says no HID kits

12th February 2009, 15:20

In that case they wont be mate, im sure the front lens on angels is a plastic rather than a glass

12th February 2009, 15:55

Yeh front lense and the actual angel melts! Know this cause happened to a mate even though i warned him lol! As Pred says the lense is made from plastic on angels where standards are glass!

12th February 2009, 15:59

they wont melt standard lights right? sorry, prob a stupid question, am i right in thinking they only melt angels cause the rings are plastic? and when you ordering? i might be interested if i can get some cash in time

12th February 2009, 16:04

they are fine with standards because the headlights are glass

angels the whole light is plastic inside and out therefore, meltage!

ill let you know tomorrow if im in for 6000k

12th February 2009, 16:25

oh didnt know they where all plastic lol

and you still get high beams and dipped beams yeah? and are these sidelights equally bright?

12th February 2009, 16:42

when do you need payment? i am actually seriously skint but im not pulling out, theres nothing worse than people putting their names down on the list and then pulling out at the last minute and risking loosing the group buy deal for everyone else.

12th February 2009, 17:17

Same question mate as i might have some money later on in the month

12th February 2009, 18:26

Im still in! After the 6000k! Good haggling there pred, great deal!

12th February 2009, 18:34

Yeh would be good to no this is happening! Got the money readys!

12th February 2009, 23:37

im gonna have to back out if it needs paying really soon...

infact im not sure whether ti get any though.. If my headlights were still perfect then i would but, when i sprayed my inserts, i broke one off the reflectors which now probably means the beam will be out when it comes to MOT and also they seem to get condensation inside them sometimes.. So basically they look mint, but there no good for MOT. So this is why i wanted angel eyes... a nice new set of lights before MOT as i really like them but cannot put this kit in them so i would be wasting my money?

12th February 2009, 23:44

Smoked standards is the way to go

Im sure theres a few types of angel eyes though mate, cheaper ones use a
plastic lens and other ones use glass

yould always use the glass from standards onto the angel eyes if thats the case

12th February 2009, 23:49

i think i would rather have standards smoked than angel eyes tbh.. I just wish mine werent fucked!!! does anyone know where the adjuster is and how you do it, for the beam on standards?? i might try adjust it and see if it still works... The up/down adjuster from the dash works fine.. just when i press the back off the H4 bulb it rocks back and forward lol.. And im trying to figure out how to fix the condensation too.. sealed them with silicone now so dont know how its happening..

12th February 2009, 23:49

Forgot to add payment isnt going to be given to me

Heres the lowdown,

Basically ill be looking to get this done at the end of the moneth when people usually get paid, maybe onto beginning of march

Andi at xenonshop will give me a code and ill pm that to you all and anyone else wanting in

You order the H4 kit and choose your bulb (for example 6000k)

Once you get to the shopping cart you enter the code and then enter your payment details etc

Andi will more than likely contact me when and if we get 15 people and put the orders all through, or we can phone up but i think the code thing is easier tbh

Are people still wanting to go for it even if we only get 10???

12th February 2009, 23:53

Oohh i get paid beginning of march, i owe money out like but i may be able to stay in on these lol

12th February 2009, 23:54

Still waiting upon aceparts to get back to which should be tommorrow but they will more than likely be roughly the same price so i wouldnt hold back this seems quite a deal.

12th February 2009, 23:55

Ok mate just keep it updated, ive emailed andy again for some more answers

Anyone want to add any questiosn for me to add so they can be answered??

12th February 2009, 23:58

yes,

can i have one for free as im skint and deprived of good vision

Reason why they should give me it for free - they will feel good hat there is one driver out there who is safer than he was

On a serious note, i am up for this but i dont no if i will have the money att he time, ehnce why my name is not on the list yet.

Once you no a date for payment etc i wil then be able to say if i am defo in or defo out

13th February 2009, 00:00

Ive asked if theres a specific time scale he wants the orders in for

13th February 2009, 00:01

im a bit like you mate,, not 100% sure ill have the money.. dont want to be letting people down!

13th February 2009, 19:51

Could be interested when is it looking to go through?

13th February 2009, 22:20

End of february, beginning of march maybe

15th February 2009, 16:45

im thinking about putting me name dwn could i get in the shit with pigs???

15th February 2009, 16:54

You shouldnt mate, i know plenty that dont

was at a meet other night and an old escort had them and cops were sitting right next to him and said nowt

if there really blue then yes, thats why a said 6000k ones are about the best

15th February 2009, 17:01

Just a bit of info for you guys who may be buying them..

6000K is the way to go. 8000K or anything brighter you stand a very high chance of getting pulled..

Mine are 6000K on the first page and they still have a hint of blue

15th February 2009, 17:03

as i dnt want any attention from cops if u get wat i meen and do u have to go bk to stnd for mot??

15th February 2009, 17:06

Yeah you do mate..

It's just plug and play though so easy stuff just to put the old bulbs back in.

15th February 2009, 17:08

Im sure iy says on the site that they pass the mot, but like said there plug and play so just disconnect and put standards back in for mot if needs be

15th February 2009, 17:11

sorry to high jack a bit but im puting halos on mine are these road legal in halos as there projectors? if so i mite be interested.

15th February 2009, 17:14

They don't pass mate as Saxo headlamps are not projector headlamps and therefore these bulbs aren't legal in them..

But yeah, it's just plug and play so for my MOT next month i'll just be putting the old bulbs in

15th February 2009, 17:14

As we have discussed, angels/projectors or some at least use plastic front lenses that may not withstand the heat

15th February 2009, 17:35

id be up for this pred, soz if its already been asked but who would we pay? how?

15th February 2009, 17:39

You will pay the shop itself mate give all ya details over when i get a discount code off them

but just waiting till end of the month now as thats when people get payed

15th February 2009, 17:43

Will they only do H4?? no H7 by any chance?

15th February 2009, 17:45

I can ask smiith

thing is there only 89.99 tbh i think they would ned to be same price but i will ask when we come to order them near end of month so remind me on ok

15th February 2009, 17:46

okay, just wondering, was gona buy some today, but if it adds a name to the list, il muck in with you lot

15th February 2009, 17:49

just noticed the kits on there site arnt HI/LOW for H7 :/

15th February 2009, 18:21

Add me onto the list Pred

16th February 2009, 17:24

16th February 2009, 18:35

I can do now or later on in the month

Not bothered either way....

16th February 2009, 23:45

Ok well ill ask for the code lads

I imagine he will be ok with this closing mid march tbh

17th February 2009, 00:32

does that mean we will be able to order whenever we fancy???

17th February 2009, 00:54

Well i imagine he will wait till ge gets 15 people first before putting them through, as he did say he needs 15 people for it to be 75 quid

17th February 2009, 10:42

I can pay whenever too

17th February 2009, 14:36

Just awaiting an email now lads, order when you can when i get it that is ok

17th February 2009, 15:17

sweet so can i order them next month at this discount price ??

17th February 2009, 15:33

Well ive asked for a closing date mate i will update when i get to know

17th February 2009, 18:15

so does that mean we will have to wait until the whole 15 people have paid before he will send them out?

Cheers

why not cancel that order and jump in with this group buy?

18th February 2009, 13:48

ready to pay anytime......

Wuld also like to no about waiting till 15ppl have paid....

18th February 2009, 13:49

Ok spoke again i have the code from him and he said he will do discount on any kit that people want ie H7 etc etc

Im just asking a few more questions before i put the code up guys and yeah mark need 15 before he will post them out

i think the discount is done on how many he gets so it gets cheaper and cheaper the more we buy, am not sure though

18th February 2009, 14:26

this really needs to be checked mate, as im not happy sending them my money in hope that another 14 people will pay. it could take another month for the other 14 people to pay which would mean a massive delay for everyone that has paid early.
also without trying to sound more pessemistic than i already do what would happen if we dont get the 15 people? would we get our money back? would be be expected to pay the extra money?

18th February 2009, 14:43

Well he said he will keep the buy open for 30 days,its a trusted company mark, also you have the option of paying by paypal or card when you go through the secure checkout, at least with paypal you have a way of getting money back if it goes wrong which i very much doubt it will

id take all money but tbh i dont want that responsibility as it causes arguments etc

Anyway heres the email he sent me

People feel free to order

if we dont get 15 then he will contact me, i think we should though, think it will take aroud 3 weeks to get them ordered but hopefully less, im not fussed on the wait if im getting the discount

18th February 2009, 14:55

just going to order mine now

The money may be needed elsewhere for a start, hence why i have not fully put my name on the list yet.

EDIT - personaly i think this would o fbeen better if everyone sent pred a deposit to say they wer defo going to buy.

Then i would be abit more confident sending my money to them and waiting for others to send theres....

18th February 2009, 19:29

didnt mean that to sound as intrusive as it probably came across, i was thinking you had some doubt in the payment side of things and i was going to straighten out any issues you had.
However, you could pay and then it would be a nice suppise when they came lol

18th February 2009, 22:18

No lol its ok, i expected someone to ask why lol

will see how this oges over the next week or so and see whats what
