Ill start here! update 9-9-8

If you've simply picked up the existing wiring, then you're probably getting a voltage drop which is interfering with the little modules, etc. You'd need to run thicker and more direct wires and use a bunch of relays.

That or a raised earth.

I could get it to work but i was sold it as a direct fit, so its there issue, plus im not going to turn away the offer of a more expensive kit! :mrgreen:

Tho im not sure about the voltage drop? as its fine when the xenons are on, its only when you select side lights, it also effects my radio?

Well got my new HID kit fitted and working,

The old kit would have been fine if i had known about the dim-dip function earlier! LOL

Cheers for paul c for pointing out that this was even on the car!

Anyway new main and dip kit fitted and working, looks pretty cool as it only lights the top 1/2 of the light thus no upward reflection and no blinded drivers!

So on to what i have done today





Not 100% sure on them but ill keep them for the while to see if they grow on me.

Also got these to fit when i get some orange bulbs



Getting my coilovers tomorrow so another thing on the ever growing to do list!

Will be fitting some late door cards later so might do some before and after pics

Views welcome

Well door cards on

Very slight difference

Before


After


Bit of a bite the bullet moment as to fit the tweeters you need to cut the door away 8O  bit of jigsaw action and they are fitted.

Just need some new front speakers and its done
