Headlights

[Freddy]

One of the FD\'s we have is fitted with a HID kit. Thou, it has not got pop up lights. I\'ll e mail a pic sometime next week.

We paid £500 for ours. However, some are much cheaper.

In reply to the question about the diamond cut headlights ......

My mate\'s MR2 has those on.  Looks awesome  :Thumbs-up  
No, unfortunately those would not fit on a FD.  If you have a look at your head lamps, you\'ll notice that they are actually not rectangular.
So halford 472 SB is a good buy then.  Better get me some of those.  Getting really sick of the stock\'s useless yellow bulbs.  
Do they give a nice white/blue sort of look??

Cheers

The cheap ones are OK. They do light quite brightly but the focus is poor. Also, lifespan is short. I know Philips do one which work well.

Dont quote me on this but I think they are called Xtreme Blue. Retails around £40 a set.

FC lights are a big problem in my opinion.

What shape and size are the FC lights? if they are 7" round ones I\'d recoment you investigate the Quad optic halogen conversion you can get for the original mini!! £25 - £30 and the light out of them is fab!! Chainged the lights in my old MX5 to them and what an improvement!! Any mini store has them, or get a copy of mini world and there are loads of companies doing them!!


One option on the HID setup is what I\'m going to do: Find a dead BMw in a salvage yard and strip the lights out of it, and make a custom headlight set up!!!
