Ok, so not tonight.I'm back at the lab trying to keep the eggheads happy.

Bad weather tomorrow, so I'll do it in the afternoon.

Does anyone care? It wil be a very clean way to do it with some thoughtful pointers...

Uncle O, you would be entirely welcome to come over! I'll even supervise.

I think you'll like what I'm doing.

Question for the forum: Should I have the TSB on the headlights done before installing HID?

Just to avoid any unwanted questions (or half-arsed excuses) -yeah, I would have the things replaced first. Then it's just a 1 hour job to "go bright".

To anyone doing the fog lights - Do NOT trust the connector orientation on the kits.
Good thing I checked polarity before making the connection. It is backwards. Simple fix was to file off the tab on the kit then assemble, connector was still very tight and should not come apart.

Really?

I'll make a note of that.

Thanks!

Where did you buy them from? Many of the eBay HID sellers include a 1-year warranty.. email them and try to get another bulb..

Hope you kept your old halogen bulbs in the meantime..

Usually, the vendor for the kit sells replacements.

I think, if they have the AMP connectors, they are pretty much universal.

(I have a feeling that they all come out of the #1 Tianjin/Guanjou/Shanghai HID factory. )

Different boxes.
