After having a HID kit on my previous car it was about time I upgrade the frankly poor bulbs that came with the EG6 and also only having one bulb that worked too was a major factor in upgrading. I bought the kit from HID's Direct in Manchester online and the kit arrived the next day which was pleasing, the kit is H3 fitment and 8000k colour temperature.
Also having projector headlights already I know that the HID's would look awesome shining through the glass orb's at night and give the car a really modern feel and look whilst improving the vision at night. I enlisted the help of my girlfriend and we cracked on for about 3 hours planning it out and completely removing the headlight units to make life easier and making sure it was all fitted 100%. To be honest it wasn't that hard to fit them into the headlight units and finding a place for the ballast boxes wasn't a problem either, mounting them on the front cross member and running the cables around the lights worked perfectly. Once we had finished we tested them out and they worked first time without a hitch which was satisfying, all we had to do now was wait until it got dark.
High quality images

1) Are these legal? Keeping reading conflicting information on this.
2) Where are the pictures of your girlfriend? ;)
Look nice man, been thinking about these but as above, not sure if they are 100% legal?
1) As far as i'm aware they're legal, I haven't really read up on HID's much but I had a set on my EP82 and it passed the MOT without any problems nor have I had any run ins with the police.
2) Girlfriend pictures are only for special occasions or personal usage. :)
You should put a set on your EK9 dude, they really bring the look and feel of the car up to date.
Cheers.
