    Try www.visionbulbs.com m8. Me and my m8 saw some guy with a modded 206 with bright lights so followed him so we could ask where he got them. We ended up going all the way to his house and he told us the site. They offer a range of colours/brightnesses. I will be getting some when i have enough money

    don't think they are illegal as halfrauds are selling them

    10k will be very blue - Police stoppable.

    I was in two minds to get the 6k (white) or the 8k (bluey-white). Went with the 8k bi-xenon (Bout £90), and they are pretty much borderline legal. Go 8k mate, they look mint. If you want a fitting how-to guide, I did one about a month ago:

    Find it here:

    Hope this helps

    What exactly did you get for £90? Was it just the bulbs? I had a rough figure in my head that the actual HID kits started around £300?

    ye ive read the tutorial, very helpful

    HIDs are like merc lights etc...
    the proper kits

    another name are xenons for them, but u can also get just the bulbs that are around £10-£25 which are nothing like the HID KITS

    Shops will sell them at that, but I got the full kit (bulbs, ballasts, leads, relay wire, bolts, cable ties, everything) for that price.

    Now the company I got them from doesn't seem to have them on ebay at the moment. I have contacted them cos I'm starting an ebay shop and I've kinda agreed with them to sell them in the UK for them, so in next week or so I'll do that. I'll keep you posted and I'll do a deal for anyone who wants them as soon as I find out how much they're gonna shift them to me for.

    I've had a cuople kits off ebay before, but they were - to put it lightly - shit. These ones are awesome, fully compatible for saxo's (see how-to guide), so I am 100% able to recommend them.

    "Xenon" bulbs dont even come close...

    Right - I'm now a UK distributor for this HID conversion kit now. Gonna start an ebay shop selling them. Now the company dont sell direct - the one I got was a promotion to get awareness going for their website (thought it was cheap for the quality of the kits!).

    Now i have registered as a distributor for them in the UK - they really are good kits and I can openly recommend them, using it myself.

    He has sent me a list over of everything I can sell and the costs also. I can get these kits for any type of fitment, any colour, any replacement parts, fully guaranteed and delivery to your door also.

    PM me with any requirements you have, any questions and although I haven't set up the ebay store yet, I'll do a deal for Saxperience members of one charge delivered to your door.

    I can get a full bi-xenon kit (high and low beam) including all cables, bulbs, ballasts and fitting brackets, cable ties, bolts, EVERYTHING delivered to your door for £150. I will be selling them for slightly more on ebay. If you look at ebay you'll see cheaper kits, but as I mention on the how-to guide, I got one of these but sent it back cos there are 2 bulbs in one, the main headlight being a normal yellow bulb and the full beam being HID - which was bullsh*t. These kits have one HID bulb and uses a mechanism to switch the beam of light from dipped to full so its always HID. And they're not from China like most, these are made in the USA, and are the same kits shops retail them for £250+.

    Let me know guys.

    Hmm might be tempted soon, I still have issues with the legality of these nowadays though. I thought MOT stations will now fail aftermarket kits?

    Get why I was thinking around the £300 mark? That's for an H4 setup too...

    Those Bosch are the ones I bought originally. Had to send them back.

    Also, read the description for them, "for H4 add £20".

    With these conversion kits - you get what you pay for - believe me, I found out... twice!

    You can find many kits on ebay for very cheap but our kits will outperform the rest and thats why we are able to sell for a little higher in price.
