lol LEDS only work one way but the first thing you do is moan and swear thinking you got a "duff-one", i did at least till the penny dropped :headhurt:

I tried that as i know how leds work! Still no joy and the one that is in has started to flicker so im guessing i have 2 dud ones.

Very smart mate! From looking in the engine bay you'd never know you had hids fitted.

What K are they? Mine are 8000k and look nowhere near as blue as yours...

They are 6000k, they do become less blue when they heat up i have found but stil look blue lol.

Excellent instalation - very thorough!

When I installed mine I just drilled a hole in the back plate and put the grommet through there. The ballasts are out of sight against the side panels. Did them about 2 years ago. Still going strong. Used 6000k - they make the main beams redundant. Put them in my CMax as well!

You certainly did. They do look OEM.

Technically, you're not allowed to fit them unless you have a headlamp washer system installed as well. Load of bo**ocks, though as mine's passed its MOT twice.

Nice one. It's a stupid piece of legislation anyway. I've heard one or two scare stories about this, but I've never actually heard anyone fail an MOT. I did tell my garage and they're not bothered about it.
