Headlights

[The devil]

I have noticed the headlights are getting a bit rusty inside on the nob
Anyone know what to replace them with
It's not a 3r

HIDs - you will be amazed that you can actually see the road ahead at night.

Been wondering about those myself Rob, were they expensive?

With the older lights, I never have had an issue with the lights. I just put in the bright H4 bulbs that you can get and they are now even better and do a good enough job without having the hassle of fitting HIDs

I got HIDs ...

It is a totally different world now when it gets dark.

I think they are about £100 each.

Already got hid lights
It's the reflector that's getting rusty so need replacing
Hid lights are the nuts though

Hi All,
Can anyone suggest where I can get HID's from? Is it a full on pack with ballasts (where would they go?) or just a simple bulb upgrade?
I've got a 2002 2.5 & would love to upgrade the lights.
Thanks
Jay

Jay,
You need to buy a kit, anywhere from £100 to £170. they come complete with ballasts and cables etc. they seem to only have one control unit to do both headlights so the wiring only comes from one side which is a bit of a pain. its also a challange to find a place to out the ballast as the leads are not the longest in the world but then nothings that easy on yer Nob

Thanks, Which suppliers do I contact?

[The devil]

Google it

I thought they were just mini headlights devil? if they are then should be easy to replace.
If you are wanting a change you could probably change them to whatever you fancy that suits the car, maybe even the rossion headlights, they are only glued in so it just means getting out the dremmel and cutting the clam, if you cut carefully and do a nice silicon bead you can do it all without needing paint.

Yup just headlights from the new Mini (I hope :-) )
