No no, let me clear thing up for you...
If you put a HID bulb into a standard light housing (one the doesn't have a convex lens to 'shear' the light spread) You WILL be blinding all on coming drivers. Also the car wont pass MOT, but the shear disrespect to other drivers is what bugs me...
If you want white light with filiment bulbs, buy the like if philips +90%.
Get it sorted...

Re: Lowering pictures please
Iv got some 17 alloys with 35 profiles. trial fitted them on my 106dci and could probaby fit a number of small children in the space left in the wheelarch ! so if i was to get some ticker tyres an lower it by 40mm would this actually look better ? seemed to me like id need 18s on average pofile and lowered a fir bit to look good !
dont want to waste money on a new set of higher profile tyres just to fin it still looks sh*te ! lol
cheers !
