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.

is it these ???
yep thats one of them i looked at.

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.
