HIDs on a 5.5 who still uses them (a kit)

Post by ct.p »

I know, I know, no self levelling and no washers they might fail an MOT blah blah.

But I've just ordered two sets, some H7's for the headlights and some H3's for the fogs which I use as DRL's.

I've been holding off on my current 5.5 which I've owned since 2011 knowing the MOT issue. On my old 5.5 which I bought in very early 2007 and HID kit was one of the first things I did to the car.

I've had enough of the stock projectors which are designed for HID's but are fitted with halogens.

So, who is running a HID conversion kit these days, how are the MOT's ?
