got the kit off a mate for a go kart, simple enough to fit yeah mounting the ballast is the only awkward bit, they are legal had them on my last car aswell and never had any bother

1. eBay (quick guess)
2. Nope very easy
3. Hmmm lol, if you have self levelling headlights which are HID standard
4. not unless your mot guy is decent, dodgey or stupid :P
When it goes for an mot I would take the HID lamps out and put standards back in. You can leave the ballasts connected as there is no need to remove them :thumbs:

that self leveling lights is false along with needing wipers for them as well if you look up the mot guide book thing cant remember the link but it clearly says it will only fail hids if the beam is off
