Hid's For Is200

[imyruff]

Ello everybody!

I am really interested in gettin a HID kit for my IS200 :)

I want advice on which ones to buy and who from?

The price range im looking at?

The best temperature to get?

The life expectancy of the kit?

Also if anybody could provide me pictures showing me their HID's working it would be helpful!

A big thank you in advance!

I have the Meccatune kit from Prolex, Think they were about £220 at the time. I think the best temp to get would be the 6K.

One of the best mods you can do to the car :)

agreed, looks great, i will be upgrading soon pick the kit up off eBay for 150 quid plug n play.

hello

I've got the 8000k hid kit on mine which looks great and now i can see in the dark at last?

I had mine off e-bay and paid £75 for them and took me 20 mins to fit even though i think if i did it again i'd go for the 6000k set as the 8k kit is quite blue in colour and you do get a bit of glare from them?

i had them set up yesterday and there great now.

Chris... :D

6500K matey. Meccatune from Prolex.

[si's_lex]

do you have to get separate kits for your high and low beams? this could prove costly...

[aido]

Remember guys that the higher the kelvin figure, the lower the actual light output on the road - the 6000k look really cool, I liked having those, but when we compared side by side with Zee's car with 4300k bulbs, the 4300k were loads better!

@ Si, yeah mate you need two lots so you'll have to locate four ballasts somewhere!

[si's_lex]

ohhh brilliant, more money lol

just had a look, they only have the 9005 left. is that deffoo the hugh beam kit

Hello

I just bought a set from this eBay seller HIDS i got the 4.3k bulbs and they are a big improvement on the standard bulbs. These kits wouldn't be much good for the high beams they take a couple of seconds to get up to full brightness

just noticed youve fitted 4.3k time to go to bed. would appreciate pics though :winky:

[ekky]

I'll get pictures tomorrow

[boddamloon]

I just fitted Halfords Brilliant white Bulbs(Full Beam) and there is a big difference with them.20 quid each though

[Parthiban]

I'd quite like to see pics of the 4300K ones too :)

Has anyone seen 4300, 6500 and 8300 side by side? I've got the 8300 and they do put out a lot of light, but I'm curious to see how much of a difference there is between them all........

[ekky]

A couple of photo of the HIDs installed

The photo i took with lights on was useless, i will try and get better one later

[ekky]

These pictures aren't brilliant, but you can get an idea of the colour

4.3k HID low beam and sidelight

4.3k HID low beam, high beam and sidelight

Hope they are of some use
