HiD light upgrade

Has anyone fitted an HiD kit to upgrade the lighting on the Z?

Seen this one on fleabay.

That's an H4 kit - you'll need an H7, which are luckily cheaper!

hi, if you are intending to fit a hid kit on the dip, i think it's best to have it on all the time the engine is running. switching from main to dip can leave you in the dark as the bulb etc warms up.

i wired in a relay with the trigger coming from the lighting relay[44] using the blue and white wire to bring the hid on only with the engine running

as for kits to get, i got a h7 slimline with a 5000k / 35w, as it's a car kit i have a spare, i believe it was under �30

do make sure the pattern is 'flat' and propely adjusted! as they can be dazzling

ciao

Got HID in both dim and main light. Changed the wiring in the switch such that when main comes on, dim light stays on: and there was LIGHT!!!

Fitted a cheap hong kong H7 hid to mine in dip. Was easy enough to do. Not considered main as the bulb holder looks to need some mods. Singleminded how did you deal with the main bulb issue?
