Just one legal point, HID's need headlamp washers by law, I was pulled by the plod in the wife's Lupo Gti one night, for having "illegal lights", stupid plod didn't realise that Lupo Gti's have Xenons as standard fit, so I demonstrated the washers all over his leg

I bet he thought you were just nervous Bob
Haha, stupid copper, would love to soak him with my headlamp washers.
Im going to get a kit ordered today hopefully, my FR has the convenience and winter packs so it already has the washers fitted in the bumper
Ill let you guys know how I get on and post some finished pics, if I have time Ill do a step by step how to guide and put it on the site

Our headlights are projector though, so the anti glare won't work, as a presume the original case cover makes them anti-glare anyway.
''NOW AVAILABLE FOR ONLY £10 EXTRA - THE NEW H7R ANTI-GLARE BULBS FOR STANDARD REFLECTOR HEADLIGHTS (Not suitable for Projector type headlights)''
ours arent projector......
projector are the ones with the kinda small circle thing.
best way to describe it is look at cupra hids.... thats projectors. ours are just normal.

Moley, I have not had an opportunity to take any night shots of the HID's for you, as you have requested of me. But will do as soon as I can. All I can say is that its like daylight in front of you. I think I used that strathy code (or another one), while they had a promotion on at the same time, so ended up getting them for £125
You will also need to get LED sidelights if you have not already, as no filament bulb will match the colour of the HIDs.
These antiglare just dimmer?

I had hids in my last car, and going back to even nightbreakers ain`t good. I think for a group buy we need to look at paying £125 as well then , cheers for that !! Do they stay on when you put on full beam as well ?
Oh okay, but still don't really understand the benefit of the anti-glare bulbs against the standard ones they offer?
without stating the obvious mate, i would say....reduced glare?
seriously.... see if u look at some cars that come towards u with aftermarket hids and "normal" headlights... the actual dazzling glare off them is horrific. I'd presume with these bulbs, and i think it does say on the website..that they give the beam a more crisp pattern etc.

I'm sure you still need self-levelling as part of the legality as well as washers?
They used to sell them for that price, so hopefully we could get them down to there abouts with a decent order ...
ok let me get this straight. if we dont call it a feeler then we are not stepping on those forum rules?
we have asked here who was interested and we have not afaik asked any permission in the "feeler" forum
so asking here IS legal????

But by posting here and arranging a group buy in all but name you are contravening the forum rules, so you can either abide by the rules and do things properly or try to do your own thing and suffer the consequences. It's your choice really.
