Hi all,
Im looking to buy a HID kit for my 2001 Red Rose my problem is ive read various times on here that i need H7 bulbs but when i seach for Tuscan kits on ebay they are all H4???
Can anyone help as i want to order some asap after being caught out last night. The first time i have driven it at night and i thought i had a coulple of candles lighting my way!
Also to get to the bulbs i take it the main bonnet has to come off?
Many thanks

The H4 kit for the Tam uses a single bulb for dip/main beam. The Tuscan has separate bulbs for dip/main beam IIRC therefore requires the different bulb configuration. Aceparts (on fleebay) were who I purchased my HID kit from, they also have their own web site, you might try there.Im looking to buy a HID kit for my 2001 Red Rose my problem is ive read various times on here that i need H7 bulbs but when i seach for Tuscan kits on ebay they are all H4???

You want an H7 kit, I installed this in my Cerbera (tuscan style lights) makes a huge difference.I bought mine of ebay for a £1 plus £30 postage from china they are the same as the £200 kits you buy in the UK!!!
Have a read at this thread it might be of some use.

H7 indeed...
Main bonnet has to come off, on both sides you'll find a black cover for the lights, which has to be undone too.
Bit of a fiddle to get the lights in, I think I screwed the ballast on the back of the cover.
Shameless plug maybe, but I ordered mine from the Elise shop in the NL

Here is the small bulb, fits into the smallest of the 3 front lights on the tuscan MK1
It's an Led and takes a few minutes to change but is a lot brighter, white rather than yellow.
