General Welcome to My Bravo Project!

Has anyone installed any HID on their Fiat Bravo, Including HID fog lights? Im looking for a package I think they are H1,H11 Hid Kit I require...
 
HID's? Yes many of us including myself. Quite an easy job. Though I'll adamantly tell you that you should not use HIDS in your fog lights, firstly the cornering function wouldn't work correctly as HID's have to warm up. Secondly and most importantly fogs use reflectors and you will scatter the bright light all over the place and dazzle other drivers. The same thing applies for people who use them as full beam lights. HIDS are ok yet technically illegal in the bravos Dip beam. Not to go to deep into it but because the bravos dip beam uses a projector lens. It's much nicer and focuses the hid beam a lot better and doesn't blind other drivers.
swift sorted me out and guided me through the installation. But it's surprisingly easy. Most of us on here have used Hawx HID. H1 is the right bulb If I remember :) they look great, here's mine

Thanks for the information mate, I just completely forgot about the cornering feature on the fog lights if I was to install HIDs.

Ive seen Hawk HID on ebay:

Are these the ones you guys have installed and is it pretty much plug and play?

Just received my new Xenon HID Headlight Conversation Kit- H1 6000k this afternoon before installing them I would like to know if this will fail the MOT since its due in November was reading online some people mentioning that HIDs failed their MOT. ?

Another Update:

Just purchased some Boot Springs, which will make the Fiat Bravo Boot open automatically.

The user who is selling them provided me with some excellent advice, and also included some washers. He did mention that the struts might need to be upgraded, but for £12 including p&p seemed like a good price for springs.

The seller mentioned that it has worked on a fiat bravo 2009 but did have the upgraded struts.

Things to look out for he said:

When lifting the boot the main thing is when you start to lift it yourself how far until it's goes up on its own. If you have to lift it about 10cm from the moment it opens then no need for upgraded struts.
