thats mega cheap
My dad got a set of bulbs on his transit that are HID lookalike and are completely legal made by ring, he paid £15.00 for the bulbs and had the sidelights free - I can't remember the site - not only do they look "white" but they do also improve vision, especially in rain
So if you can't afford £130 odd, and you just want the look using standard bulb and a little improved vision, get some

i thought they were only £10 - £15 lol, i'm getting some off ebay, the same as they put in audi's etc which IMO look good enough

you missed one
And one in the avitar too!
This Wikipedia article may be of interest to people (like me) who don't know what was different to normal light bulbs!
for those of you that are considering buying 'HID look' bulbs, they are just normal halogen bulbs put in a different packet, sometimes with a layer of white or blue coating on the glass whihc makes no difference.
when fitting the lights people often claim that they look much better than the old bulbs, thats probably because the old bulbs were old, not because the new ones are so much better.
if you try comparing a new halogen bulb to a 'hid look' one you cant tell the difference. i had one 'hid look' bulb on the driver's side and a standard halogen bulb on the passenger side when i first fitted my polyelliptical headlights. i couldnt tell the difference so i showed a few people, and majority of them agreed that the standard 55w halogen bulb looked brighter and whiter than the 100w 'hid look' bulb. i didnt tell them which was which.
while i'm on the subject, almost all 100w headlight bulbs are only 55w or 60w, but in china and japan it is common to put 100w markings on them because they sell better, especially on ebay.

never heard so much bolloks in my life, the ring ultra xenon bulbs are a lot better than normal, the ebay cheap xenon/hid look are fake, 100w will be dimmer because your car has not got the power to light them propperjug said:
