Hids.

[Biff]

I'm currently looking at hid kits for my ph1 v70r. I've ordered a load of led lights for my interior, side & number plate lights but it made me think, if I fit hids will it interfere with my dash lights?
Cheers.

I should have said......had mine did lol (not good grammar but you get the idea)

[Biff]

Silly question graham & Martin but were they still h7 in the projector headlights? I want the chrome the same as Graham's eventually you see.

Yes, still H7.....there are different bulbs though for projector and non-projector headlights iirc they are H7R bulbs for the reflector headlights.

I went for 5000K and am very pleased, 6000K will have a more noticeable blue tint.

I'll replace the ballasts as & when really. I read Martin uses 4800k & to be honest I don't want burn your eyes out bright. I hardly drive in the dark in summertime anyway. Lol
Thanks for the info, just didn't see the point in fitting them if I was going to have to replace them come the time I have the funds for new headlights.

I'm running 10k and their unreal and no one has ever said anything and past every mot with them in

They won't now though as it came into the test a couple of months ago (unless they are originally fitted but you have just changed the bulb temp)

i thought that was the case to

[Biff]

I really don't want them bright, if needs be I'll get a separate high power main beam. A few of the local boyo's have a million kalvin head lights that burn your retina's out on low beam, it's just not a good look in my opinion.

5000K.....can't go wrong IMHO

Very subtle the chrome ones. I think I'll get those eventually. Bloody expensive though new. Lol

I've got some 6k HIDs in my ph1 v70 and I don't have any problems off the old plod for them, never even batter an eyelid and they're on all the time

They've not brought any dash lights on either :)

[Biff]

Tidy, cheers mate. I've ordered some 6k ones so hopefully old bill will keep they're eyes off like they do now.
