Just for information really ive been told about an exceptionally cheap/reliable supply for HIDS. A friend of mine tested them out for his forum and now there are about 15 people with them with no probs. Click Hopefully may be of use to someone, Phill

Well they do seem to be the bargain of the century.
To be fair they are a wholesaler, so most other people on Ebay buy them off them.
I think they must have thought they were missing a trick and started selling them direct.
Like i say, whilst i havent had personal experience of them (yet) i know of plenty of people who have.

Well going by these recommendations i'v just bought a set. At this money they're def worth the risk to give them a go. If they turn out to be good then i could have dips, beams, and fogs in HID for around a ton!! Couldn't beat that wit a big stick!!!

From what i gather you just unplug your old bulb from its holder, twist connect it into the ballast and then plug the new filament into the light unit, with the correct fitment i cant see why it wouldnt fit.

Going for a set of these in the dips and Osram Night Breakers in the main beam to avoid lighting up small planets with the beam scatter. Dipped beam is what really sucks on the coupe anyway, main isn't too bad.

I'v just fitted mine there tonight and they are pretty good must say! Did have to manually readjust them. They do seem to be slightly tempermental - sometimes tonight the left hand low beam wouldn't come on!! Comes ok again with a quick on / off switch. I've heard of ones doing this on BMW's MINI's etc so i'm hoping it doesn't get any worse. Does anyone else kno of this happening? Will post pics tomorrow

Eh eh, Calm down, calm down!! You'l be wanting the H1 kits for each application, both the hi and low beams are H1 type bulbs. As too are the fogs They are each a seperate light unit so thay shall have to be treated as independant. Don't think the 2stage thingy will work on the 20vT coupe. I know the H1 kit will work as i've fitted'em. I'll be ordering my H1's for the main beam today. G'luck
