4300k are the closest to halogens (ie yellower). 6000k are a very bright white with just a tiny tinge of blue. Anything higher is blue verging on purple and a very large chunk of rozzer bait.
I was just wondering if any one had tried them and can confirm they were ecent spec/quality
They're here 
Kit arrived today safe and sound, so all in all they took about 10 days from ordering to arrive. No customs charge either, thanks to the $19.88 declared value
I have to say I'm very, very impressed so far. They were nicely packaged, the box is nicely made and well presented and the quality of the components look superb! The ballasts are solid and not too big, all cabling is nicely protected and covered in rubber surrounds, there is a lovely rubber grommet on the bulb wiring for when you have to feed them through the headlight covers (that inspired a lot of confidence!), the ballasts have lovely, solid metal brackets to aid mounting them to the car all clips are nice and solid and everything has a nice quality feel to it
I've taken some pics for those who may be interested or who want to compare them to their own kits, so here you go....
Unfortunately I wont be able to fit them until I get my car back from the bodyshop, but rest assured the day it's back they are getting fitted and more pics will be taken!
Any questions, just shout

Hi Rob.
The wiring, connectors and grommets are the same as mine.
For what it's worth I cut a 22mm hole.
Fitting the grommet is bloody awkward but the seal is damned good!
Hope the install goes OK.

Cheers for the advice
Don't know what the Leon engine bay is like.
But I'll bet good money you spend the biggest part of your time working out where to put the ballasts!
BTW. Woolworths sell heavy duty waterproof Velcro. About 2 quid.
I used it to fix my ballasts.
Guy.
Looks like the price has gone up abit. Picked pounds and its coming in at 52 dollars plus 18 quid postage.
Kit looks a good un tho.

what was shipping price rob?
my bi-xenon kit works out at £80.77
which is cheaper than almost all i have seen(mostly on e-bay)
Where were these from, how easy to fit and howdo they work?
link is in the first post matey.scroll down and pick which bulb fitment you need
*drop down box has H4 and H4 bi-xenon.my octavia has 1 H4 bulb for dip and high beam so i have to add $50,this is for a sheiled bulb that moves when you swap from dip to main,from what i have read you can get away with just H4 but come MOT time you need a high beam to pass mot,so to save swapping about a bi-exnon is what you should buy.
*jasons normal disclaimer of not knowing exactly wtf he is talking about applies*
seems like a good deal on those kits though it does look like the motoring press are wanting the authorities to clamp down on them

Got a call today to say it's not going to be ready until Monday at the earliest now. In a way I'm not that annoyed, as I'd rather they did a good job and take as long as they need. But I want the damn car back and I want to fit these lights!
That's why I haven't bothered with them, just one more thing for the cops to do you for.
