The guy in Oz who is building the kit can supply headlight housings and lenses.... he is getting back to me with a price but its going to be ouch expensive.

Anyone have a set kicking about?
Steve, are you making final touches to your headlights or to the purchase? Sorry, post is somewhat misleading :confused:

I've also been looking at those proper HID conversions for a while now...

Finishing touches to the order I should have said. Decided to go the whole hog and have them buy some series 3 housing and fit the HID projectors and angle eyes to them. They will then ship the finished product to me.

I am getting fed up with truckies blinding me because I am blinding them!! And truckies in Namibia have serious high beams!!!

My lights are in the post:)

:blonde:

I cannot wait.

I went for 4300K as they are the softer lights and have higher Lumens than the whiter lights.

Finally recieved the lights. 2 weeks to get paypal to pay the guy. 1 week for the guy to make and ship. 2 months for DHL to tell me they had arrived. 2 Months to get DHL to release them.

DHL sucks.

Anyway fitted them and after a teething issue related to a plug that was not making proper contact I have 55W biZenons HIDs. The projectors are brilliant and I will post a pick of how sharp the line is!! I realised I did not take a pick of the angel eyes on... I will post one later!!

The quality on the wiring and plugs is all very good. :thumbup:
