Hi guys,
Ive been running HID in my headlights for a while. my original set were from HIDS4U and were quite expensive (around £200 about two years ago) they have been very reliable.
I took allot of care in setting them up and they are aimed a little lower than say standard headlights,
Ive just used 2 pairs of the Chinese H3 hid units for my roof bar, only cost .99p each plus £35 postage (both pairs totaled less than £80.00)
Ive not had any problems dazzling other drivers.
they give an amazing quality of light, the roof bar is quite amazing on the lanes.

Hi went laning with Andy at the weekend, his lights are the best I've seen and as they are well set up don't dazzle when behind.

Hiya,
they're not great photos, but they give you an idea.
the little boxes on the lightbar are little rs components cases that Ive adapted to house the Ballast units and U bolted to the lightbar.
I didn't like them at first and it is a work in progress, but I don't notice the boxes now.
The KC's on the front bumper are big enough to hold the Ballasts in the back of them (bit of luck really)
The last photo is courtesy of sternyboy and The Kent Massive. and shows the roof lights in use when I was out with them before christmas.
