Lbm Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 UK spec glass headlights are designed to fit Low 9006/HB4 and High 9005/HB3 Copied from here: http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=142251 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gzaerojon Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Is main beam a good idea though? Don't forget they take a while to warm up, so a quick flash really won't be very bright, and also they may not last as I'm not sure if the ballast could take it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveC Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I changed the low beams (9006) only to HID in UK lights. When I flash the headlights, both high and low beams flash - is this normal? I never noticed that previously, but perhaps I wasn't really looking for it before I installed the HID's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr lover Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I have HID's to main, dipped and fogs no problems here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveC Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 yup, mine do that too... Thanks. Do you know if they did the same before you installed your HID's? I'm guessing they must have done because I can't really understand how this could change by just plugging in the HID's... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev.O Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I changed the low beams (9006) only to HID in UK lights. When I flash the headlights, both high and low beams flash - is this normal? I never noticed that previously, but perhaps I wasn't really looking for it before I installed the HID's. I only noticed this the other day after fitting my HID's. I can't believe I never noticed it before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
