HID on polys?

[James Guest]

hi guys/girls

i have just recently put marea polys on my car, they came with a HID kit but now one of the balasts is broken!

as the kit came with the polys i bought, i dont know what kit it was.

my question is what kit do i buy for...im guessing for a fiat marea not a bravo, but just wanted to make sure or be corrected if wrong

many thanks
james

Polys dont come with hids as standard, so the HID kit is more than likely aftermarket.

You can buy ballasts alone on ebay, and (dont quote me on this but..) i think the connection are pretty universal for aftermarket kits. You just need to find out what watt/temp your kit is and match it.

for the money you can get new 55w 6000k kits for bout £60 and these are

Hope that helps

The advice above is pretty accurate.

I'd be inclined to change just the ballast rather than the whole lot.

is 6k the legal limit? Ive heard somewhere that it is?

Thinking of getting the purple kit

there ALL illegal.

people say 6000k is highest legal because any higher its blue which is 'more' illegal.

i have 10,000k (bright blue) never had any problems in 2 years.

you can buy single ballists from ebay.
