Pete Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Yes, the standard lights are pretty poor. I've used Xenon / HID style bulbs off an ebay buyer, they worked very well but I found they died quite quickly. No substitute for a proper HID kit which you can get for sub £100 if you shop around.

RedM Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 I've been using Ring Xenon Plus bulbs for over two years without a failure. They slotted straight in to my JDM lights and do improve the lighting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt _Aero top_ Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Get a HID kit , you can get them for around £70 including postage off ebay . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 If it's a J-Spec you might find that cleaning the lights with PlastX / T-Cut / Brasso helps too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra matt Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Nice one mate cheers!Is it quite easy to fit yes mate they just plug into the light power plug on the back of the light for the power supply , then the new lamp plugs into the ballast job done , should take no more then 15 min max to fit , If you get some and get stuck ill take some pics of mine so you can see how they go;). http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=MKjz9_BguVM This shows the difference they make .
