I'm sure you could fit HID's to it? There is a group buy on here about £130ish i think.

Found the link HID GB

It's a bit dodgy putting HID bulbs into a headlight that isn't designed for them.

There's too much light for the reflector/lens to cope with and very often, the light just goes all over the place, blinding oncoming traffic and creating lots of glare which doesn't help at all in bad weather conditions.

Of course.......some of the JDM cars do have HID lamps, and I'm not sure if they are simply HID bulbs in the same lamp housings, or whether the actal reflector/lens, etc is specific.

i've been looking myself for my car and have found some direct replacment from phillips called diamond light that are ment to be the nearest thing to HID's.

Think you can get them for about £30

Hope this helps
