Request! Ph1 with HIDS (4300k)

[AhmedRSi]

As title,

I know dual optics are projectors so will look different to the same temp in a non-projector car

anyone got pics of 4300/6000k kits fitted to a ph1 172 or ph1 with dual optics?

Its just the s**t camera phone they were taken with.

They are blue. Too blue. The Xenons on my TT are miles better.

Dual optics are HB3 for dipped driving beam. I wouldnt bother with fitting a HID for full beam.

 

[AhmedRSi]

HB3 for you matey, just got mine today...

Could you please get loads of pics from different angles in the day and night? sorry for bieng fussy just looking to order them soon need to make a decision

 

[Nick_P]

6000k, the correct choice

 

[AhmedRSi]

The above look perfect in the first 2 pics! but a little blue in the last pic, seems to be very much dependant on the angle!

 

[Nick_P]

Tbh that last pic is a little blue compared to real life, i think they are perfect tbh, great light onto the roads too!

 

[AhmedRSi]

Im deciding between 4300k or 6000k atm, leaning more towards the 4300k but still not 100% sure!

 

[Nick_P]

6000k. ha

 

[kie1an]

lol no wonder it looks like a police car.

there are halogen bulbs in the glovebox if you dont like them :rasp:

 

[AhmedRSi]

there are halogen bulbs in the glovebox if you dont like them :rasp:

TBH yours look more like 4300k than anything else, there very bright with no sign of blue... sure there 8000k?

 

[kie1an]

yup . i thought the piicture didnt look right . theyre alot more blue in real life

 

[AhmedRSi]

Tbh i want mine to be like your pic in real life... so think ill go for 4300k!

 

[clioandy105]

hope this helps, its not of dual optics, but its the different Hid types within reason

 

[Waitey]

Standard 172 Xenons are 4300k.

 

[JR]

just trying to find some pics for you fella.

Had mine mot'd with my hid kit on too. I had a 6k kit, the mot tester said the headlights were brilliant, put them on the beam tester etc.

Wish they fitted xenons to my car as standard he said lol.

Taken from this thread - http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=287933

Just a few pics of the front side lights fitted, i have fitted the interior lights and the number plate light as well but forgot to get some pics of those.

Before

And after

They go very well with my Xenons imo.

 

[JR]

One more too

[GarethM]

strange :S

few people said they look bright compared to 172 xenon's

 

[Sargara]

Is it an MOT failure having HIDs and LED sidelights on Ph1 sport headlights? I just read Justin got away with it??

 

[fUbAr]

the higher the number, the less light they actually omit.

My money would be on 4300k

yeah as they need washer jets etc...

takes 20 mins to swap or if you know the right place to get an MOT

 

[Sargara]

But Justin just said he got away with it and the MOT examiner even commented on how good they were? lol.
