S2 HID light.
S2 HID light.
The dipped beam on my HID front light has gone and I need to make sure that I order the correct one as I have not worked with one before.
It will be after market, so has anyone fitted a kit or had to replace a bulb. They have a ballast pack as well so it could be one of the two.

Re: S2 HID light.
Have also been looking at HID conversions so would be interesting to hear others thoughts.

Re: S2 HID light.
Probably need more info tut - would imagine there's more than one option to upgrade (from aftermarket specialists like Elise Shop and Eliseparts, to ropey chinese eBay jobs)
Probably need to take a look at any codes or part numbers on the ballast units or bulbs/burners

Im happy to just buy a kit and try it. There will be more than one suitable kit. Martin have you got both dipped and full as HID as I see you get both options?

Re: S2 HID light.
Just the dip, but that is plenty. Can still be too bright if you get a load of new signs at the side of the road in the dark.....Flashing at someone must look kinda strange, but then that is not my problem.
