HIDS4U offer a modified bulb that has a shield which prevents light scatter - far better.

What part of failing the MoT don't you understand?

And shield or not, the light output on main beam is cr@p.

Get some 100% uprated bulbs, NOT higher wattage.

Forget the HID kit they're rubbish.

A decent set of bulbs makes the world of difference as well as being 100% legal

Well, my last HID kit i installed was brilliant and that was after i'd put in xenon max Halogen bulbs first. You really can't beat proper xenon HID. The advantage of H4 is they are BiXenon kits too!

I really wouldn't go back to halogen.

As for MOT, it takes about 5 mins to pop the old bulbs back in

Don't need it now though as the Hawk eye has em standard

I got mine from car mod shop. Great after sales too and 1 year warranty

The ADVANTAGE of H4?
There ARE no advantages with H4. Decent dip, but no better than good halohgen and utter sh1te main beam.

Plus scatter everywhere
