<In the Department's view it is not legal to sell or use after market HID lighting kits, for converting conventional Halogen headlamps to HID Xenon. If a customer wants to convert his vehicle to Xenon HID he must purchase completely new Xenon HID headlamps.>
What does/ doesn't this mean if I want to buy an aftermarket HID upgrade kit? Would it invalidate my insurance?
I have a mk1, which I understand can't be fitted with HIDs to the original units. If the light housings are replaced too (with an e-marked angel lights for example), am I in the clear?
