A version 2 car with HID as standard? Didn't know they existed. Can you post a pic? Does it have projectors?

Petersti 31 January 2011 06:30 PM

it does not have projectors and i have now swapped the headlamps for crystal ones but has 2 fuses behind each and still use H4 bulbs i will get pictrues asap

If it uses H4 HID's it is most certainly NOT standard. The only standard fittings are D2s etc.

If you already HAVE HID's on that car, it's too late, but do a search on here to find out the drawbacks.

cheer dude i have had a few looks but i can not find much i have seen a few over version 2 st'is advertised with hids so im guessing this was a optional extra

HIDs are an aftermarket add on. No classics came with HID as standard they were all H4's.

If one of your aftermarket Hi/Low bulbs has blown then you will need another Hi/Low bulb and a soldering iron.

ok they are standard h4 bulbs with standard conections i will get full pictures of all the wiring from behind the head light to show all the larger cables

"Standard H4 bulbs with standard connections"?

Then they aren't HID. So-called Xenon bulbs, maybe?

dan83590 07 February 2011 05:52 PM

Looks to me like someone may have had a go at uprating the wiring. Maybe to fit rally bulbs or something similar.

Changes nothing though, you still need a H4 bulb. It should have 3 pins on the rear of the bulb.
