Cheers Rob, am glad I asked as I am now confused again.

Both my cars are 1999

T Plate Eleite with HID
V Plate GLS with Projectors I believe.

From What I read it is illegal to fit HID as main bean so am assiming the list means that cars fitted with HID use H7 Mains.

Plus also my projectors use the H7 as well.

Headlights - dipped beam = H1 or HID 
Headlights - main beam = H1; HID or Projector (98 model year onwards) = H7



i is NOT illegal to fit HiD - despite what DfT may tell you.

as an owner of an already-modified car, you are not prevented from fitting HiD with or without self-levelling or headlamp washers

Ok, thanks for the tip about the osram nightbreakers, I have some now and they are a definate improvement.

Still was wondering about the 100w or 130w (not for road use), has anyone tried these as their dip beam bulbs?

Can anyone forsee any problems? I did see one advert that stated the switch must be rated at 25amps, is it?

Reason i'm still looking at this is my shogun and my wifes meriva have really good headlights and i'd like to get the miggy up to the same standard without installing HID.
Cheers
Dave
