hid headlight conversion

[Calum]

I run Xenon Halogens. Really really bright bulbs.

The Xenon bulbs I linked earlier were super bright and had a cool blue tint to em too Plus you get 2 of em for £6.22 - absolute bargain. B)

did you get the 100/90w or the 60/55w version as need to get some better bulbs for mine

[NINJA]

@britshgigolo Are you asking me or @admiral323???

[Calum]

Be careful with the 100W. That will offload a lot.of power to the rectifier. Better to.go off with a lower power one but perhaps warmee.

[Jens Eskildsen]

Ehr, the rectifier burns uo unused current, so the more you need the easier a life it has.

But the stator cant cope with 100W so the light will probably be dimmer than a 65w

[britshgigolo]

well i ordered the 65w one so hope they will be ok nd give more light than the standard bulb

[NINJA]

@britshgigolo The OEM bulb is only 45W, I had a 55-60W white bulb in mine before I switched to the 100/90W one. Even the 55W was an improvement over the stock bulb, which was more like a crappy house bulb and not the regular car type ones. But obviously not as good as the 90W. Which I ran with no problems on my DTR, but then maybe some problems would surface over the long term? Only time will tell I guess???

[britshgigolo]

i got the 65w bulb and fitted but not tried it yet in the dark but looks lots better than the standard bulb but time will tell

[NINJA]

I spotted these on ebay, might be worth a shot and a decent price if there not to fiddely to fit???

[britshgigolo]

would these not be the same as the ones posted above where the light is scattered and blind on coming vechles because of the reflecor

[Darty]

My standard headlight was really good!? Just not a bright white, Ran its original bulbs for years,

[Calum]

The headlight on the RE is really good too I thought. Even better when I bought some decent Xenon bulbs from Ring
