Owch these are abit out of my budget thanks for the help tho

Normal price for original Stilo HID Xenon headlamps is £862 each. I would have bought them as spares for my car if they were 5 door ones.

you dont need to change the headlights for HID's search for them on ebay all you need is the slim ballast, h7r bulb this is R for reflector headlights (what stilos are) all thats different is that there is a black cover to stop the light getting reflected up and blinding other drivers and make sure its suitable for the can-bus, so theres no problems with electrics... there about £50-£80 a kit

but they are not legal

The point of me going through the haslte of swapping the lense (if i ever do) is to make it legal, at my age police will do anything to get you in the sh** especialy aroudn here

I've bin pulled over for missing a brake light, but when i check.... it was working. and as anyone with a stilo knows, they have a bulb sensor faliure lol
