Another HID thread - for anyone unconvinced...

[Penfold101]

Seeing as there's a multitude of HID threads going at the moment, I thought one more couldn't hurt... It's like pea soup down here at Brize at the moment, so the perfect excuse to set my HID fog lights blazing...

The car has factory Adaptive forward lighting anyway, and I've changed the standard 4300K bulbs for 6000K ones, and fitted my old HIDs Direct kit with new H11 6000K bulbs to the fog lights of my VXR bumper I know the photos are crap (old phone...) but they should give you some idea of the light output...

Firstly, just the fogs...



Then adding in the Main beam...



Then the view out of the front of the car with both on...



If people can't see me now, they need their eyes tested...

I tie-wrapped them to the front crash bar supports where they bolt onto the chassis...

I don't think my phone would cope with full beam, and the left cornering light is on in the main beam photo - it's just a little overwhelmed...

If you looked straight at it you probably could lose your eyesight...
