Hi all.
Managed to get HID conversion kit for a very good price so could really do with some help with how to fit,ideally with pics.
The car is a 2005 3.0i e85 and is my daily driver,I work a lot of night shifts so have been using the force to guide me in the dark so far.
This is the kit I have.View attachment lights (1).zip
Hope the pics work,(someone could point me to the guide to this also :oops: )
Also if someone who as done this could talk me through it before its attempted that would be great,PM me and I will give you my number.
I am a novice at these things but enjoy giving it a go.
Is there anything else I need to know ie mot rules ?
Thanks Geoff.

Regarding the MOT (legality in general) - basically it isn't. I have headlamp washers and have passed 2 MOTs - they can't dismantle so I believe have to give benefit of doubt. I carry spare blubs and burners as these could be swapped at the roadside if required.

You'll find it a lot easier to install with the headlamps off the car - not that big a job to be honest and much easier than working in the wheel well. Few bolts top and bottom and the clips at the side then three bolts for each headlamp.
I have slim ballast kits taped to the inside of each headlight so no cutting required and have had no issues - yours will probably fit but take your time to figure it out and cable manage inside.
 
Thanks for that ,i also have headlight washers,the kit also comes with the slim balasts its just me that cant get the picture posting right :headbang:
Will give it a go after a little more research :thumbsup:
