Post by: rustym95 on 25 October 2009, 07:52:27

Hi have question, i replaced lights on my 95 with the new head lights with the round dome dip lights, now dont get me wrong they look good and work better than my old one's but why are they still not that bright hight beam can see for miles but dip just glows the road up, is there any way of getting them brighter they are set right but when another car is behind you there light show up more on the road than mine do, any suggestions thanks

You won't be the first or last to fit them as headlights. There are a few members on here with Night Breakers in their headlights.

i know you have just changed your lights and this may sound daft but how much extra work would it have been to fit the HID`s of a mini facelift with the charging packs ????

Just fitted a pair of nightbreakers, (having read about them on here) got them off e-bay,changed dip lights friday still waiting for high beam bulbs to arrive, (post strike I hope). Impressed with them so far particulary with price. £25 from e-bay for pair of H1 and H7, similar bulbs in Halfords £90. :o

I paid £10 for just the H1's off eBay, did not think it was worth bothering with the H7 (side lights?)

I put nightbreakers in dipped and main and I still wasn't that impressed. Mind you, I put HID's in after that and guess what? I'm still not impressed :( Do HID bulbs get tired? Mine seem quite blue.
