200 Projector lights fitted.

[Chapppers11]

Went across to Adrian's today (ado) to get the projector lights and HID kit fitted to the 200.

Had it all done in around an hour and the lights change the front end massively.

Well done Renault for making such a straight slam panel...

After

Sorry for the horrendous photos (again), but you get the drift, will get some pictures of both together very soon.

 

[R-Sport.]

cool-

[RDH]

Massive improvement. Looking good dude.

 

[Christopher]

So much better. I had to order them with mine... they're essential.

 

[ado]

You drove away in the wrong car.

 

[ColinG]

Huge difference! So are these xenons or what exactly?

I still can't understand Renault dropping the xenon option after the 182

It was an option on 197s also IIRC.

They said the uptake on Xenons wasnt sufficient enough to jutify offering it.

They do look much better with the projectors. Is that HIDs in the one on the right? I was gonna put HIDs in my projectors when I put 'em in but was put off my new MOT regs.

 

[JCC]

Finishing touch to the outside, as Christopher said they're a must for 200s, don't understand why people very rarely spec them.

Glad you're happy with them .

 

[Knuckles]

Awesome what sidelights are they?

 

[Duffman_172]

Nice, makes the front end look abit more modern lol

 

[Christopher]

What temperature are they? They look like 6000k?

 

[ado]

They are 6000k and mine are 5000k. Mine still looks yellow with the sidelights but doesn't bother me.

 

[Joe#]

Big improvement

 

[Christopher]

Nice. I made the right choice with 6000k by the look of it then!

 

[Chapppers11]

As said, they should of been on from the factory!

They are Xenons in aftermarket form, 6000k kit, ado's sidelights really let his down

 

[ado]

No. It doesn't even have silvervision.

 

[Wests Renault]

lovely motor

lights make a massive difference

They are these on ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/270798558774?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

Looked spot on with the 6000k kit, they are a nice improvement for the interior map light as well, but you need 3 of them for that.

What a mess

Thanking you

 

[JoeyD]

They look spot on! Huge improvement. I'd be leaving the sidelights out though tbh, as many did with MK2 Xenons.

 

[Christopher]

Yup. I'm leaving the sidelights out.

 

[Chapppers11]

Never thought about that! As long as they aren't a different colour they can stay.

 

[Sargara]

Great improvements on the looks, this was the first mod i did to the 200 Cup as well.

Theres literally nothing else chrome on the car other than the side badges, and Renault diamonds so it makes alot of sense to swap, makes it appear alot more modern.

 

[MarkCup]

Aside from how they look, are they worth the cost for the improvement in how they throw light down the road?

I recall there's split opinion over whether Xenons are better than standard on the mkIIs, so are these Projectors night and day difference or a bit meh compared to standard?

In other words, could I improve my lot by throwing in some upgraded bulbs...or is this another CS essential mod?

Cheers, are they easy to fit?

The only time I've ever attempted to change bulbs was when I tried to have blue fogs and I couldnt get the b******s out lol

 

[Sargara]

@MarkCup. Unfortunately no. The light you get is crisper and brighter but no extra spread, or distance unfortunately. You would get the same light pattern if you just chucked PIAA bulbs into the units compared with a HID.

@Knuckles. The HIDs themselves arent the problem, the lack of space in the engine bay is. You would need the bumper off to allow enough access to both fit and secure the ballasts properly.

 

[Ash']

Great mod

 

[skydiver]

Μuch better!

 

[Ash-R27]

They look awesome. Love the brightness of the HID's

 

[Will.]

Much better.

 

[Pwheeler12]

They look awesome mate, just awaiting for my car to arrive and while i'm waiting i'm looking at mods to get and came across this and sounds like a must, where are the parts from?

Cheers

 

[Ash87]

looks miles better

 

[Brett]

Great mod. I wouldn't like to be without my xenons. This upgrade literally makes the front end look twice as good.

Its a shame Renault went pikey and dropped standard fit xenons on the RS Clio. Then to not even make them an option on the 200 is even worse.

I'd go for Xenons every time, just because of how white the light is, they don't throw anymore light down the road, but the light is like daylight.

Mind you, mine aren't set up properly yet so they are lighting the trees above the car more than the road in front at the minute!

You can pick up The headlights from Wests Renault on here, but I got them from someone privately.

The HID kit is from HIDs-direct and they are the 35w 6000k kit, not sure which fitment they are though, maybe H1 but I'm not 100% sure!

[tommy s]

Do you still have your old lights? Looking for a set of the black ones for mine....can't say I'm too bothered about projectors for mine.

 

[Chapppers11]

Sold them sorry mate.

 

[morgam23]

when you converted the lights, what are the other components that was needed?

This is a nice mod indeed.
