Depo xenon headlights

[Danknott15]

Morning just about to purchase the depo xenon headlights but just wanted a bit of advice. Do I need to purchase a canbus H7 HID kit for the main beam or is non canbus ok? Also do I need any additional adapters or bulb holders etc?

Thanks in advance

No additional adapters needed.

I went for a canbus kit but have feeling that it is not required - I did have to code the xenons so that they both worked though.

Hi, I have a pair of these and the canbus kit is not required so you'll be fine with a standard hid bulb kit.

Cheers for the help guys. What coding needs doing?

Are HID's in the main beam a good idea? They aren't a great idea for flashing people as they won't warm up quick enough

Not a good idea. Better off getting genuine ones and running shutter wires which open and close when flashing

There's a set on the forsale section for £450 but I couldn't afford those so went for the cheap ones

Sorry I should have worded it better, I meant like 'are you sure they're a good idea'. While on the subject though, what are you guys running in your main beams? I.e; wattage, colour.

No problem buddy,

Ive got 5000k in mine, 35w kit. Yellow H7 in full beam and yellow tinted fog lights

Hope that helps

Yeah I've got 4300k 55w low beams, yellow fogs too. Main beam is just a bit boring, might try some better bulbs

What sidelights is everyone running? Didn't know whether to get led bulbs or just the capless 501 bulbs? Also dunno whether to go for white sidelights or run Amber ones so it looks Amber across the whole bottom strip?

a decent set of LED's will smash the standard halogens out the park mate, I've personally gone with white LEDs, although I have Amber DRLs activated I quite like the look of it
