The Xenon HID kit is becoming more and more popular in the UK. The advantages they offer over a standard halogen bulb are quite outstanding.

HID kits use a totally different technology to a filament bulb. A gas discharge bulb has two electrodes in a sealed tube with Xenon gas. A voltage of around 24,000V is applied to the electrode by a ballast unit which creates an arc of intense light, igniting the Xenon gas in the sealed tube. This arc of light is much more intense than the light created by a filament bulb and can give up to 300% improved vision.

The light created by these HID kits is much whiter and closer to daylight at around 6000K. It is much easier for the eyes to focus on and therefore also reduces night time fatigue. Another great advantage is it lights up road signs much more effectively. But of course the major advantage is the overall increase of light it puts onto the road. With a much longer and wider spread of light, these HID kits increase vision and safety dramatically.

We offer 2 types of HID kits, the 6000K and the 8000K kit. The 6000K HID kit produces a pure white light very close to daylight. This light is the optimum for vision and also has a slight blue tint as well. The 8000K HID kit produces a richer blue tint and is more aimed towards the styling aspect. With the distinctive blue tint, the 8000K HID kits really stand out giving your vehicle a unique stylish look.

Aftermarket HID kits are very popular and offer massive advantages over a standard bulb. Our HID kits have passed all safety and emissions tests and the ballasts have passed E4 approval. The light produced has the correct positioning and focal length to ensure the optimum use of your existing headlights. However aftermarket HID kits have yet to be approved by the EU regulations so are sold for off road and display purposes only.
