Wait for a set of genuine one's to pop up on here or ebay,don't get any xenon kit's as they won't be good and would scatter the light pattern everywhere in your halaogen housing's.Fitting and coding of genuine xenon's is easy as the hardest part is routeing the active shutter wire to the loom. :smiley:

Thought about it and looked into it on my old ED30 , costs too much i think and a load of hassle  :innocent:

I think the Depo units are a bit cheaper

They are, but then there not xenons, there a look alike with an HID kit.

I've had the depo kit and they are very good quality and look the part, but I changed to genuine xenons because they just don't give the light output.

I think the hassle factor in fitting is obviously subjective, it really is quite straight forward imo
