NO!!! Absolutely not. That's a dreadful slur to be banding around Dem!!!

There might be some childlike behaviour, but I for one am certainly not ******* kids.

Had you known him for long in 2008? Or was that one of the sliding door Peugeot things you were in?

Hilts, can you do a pictorial guide when you fit them and post it in: Running Reports & Technical Fixes???

I've ordered a H1 Philips HID conversion kit and I have no idea what I'm doing so any guide would be appreciated!

It will come with instructions, check out YouTube and if you could do a how to guide for us, it would be appreciated.

It should be straight forward.

Ill try but could be dangerous! Last thing I tried to change was an Iphone screen and case. Youtube said 10 mins. Took me 3 hours and had 3 tiny screws left over. Hopefully this will be easier..

What you have to do is remove the existing bulbs, replace with the new ones. Drill a hold in the headlight cap and feed wires through to the ballast unit then plug your existing wiring into the ballast unit.

Fitted HID's to my Brera as Conaero says above, pretty easy. Hardest part is fixing the ballasts somewhere that looks stock!

I've watched the video 5 times now, cant think why. They are on back order so should be in a weeks time hopefully.

Didn't know Philips did a genuine aftermarket HID kit!
If so I would imagine it being top quality and around £200...made to a quality not a price.

I stuck the ballast to the car with double sided velcro tape...that way it could be removed to standard with no damage.
