A strange problem with my P8 HID kit. They worked absolutely fine for around 10 months in my Esteem. And the moment I shifted the kit to my new Swift, one of the bulbs stayed on low beam while the other bulb worked fine on both low and high beams. I initially thought that the bulb mechanism might have gone bad and got it replaced with a new bulb, but the problem persisted. Then, I replaced the ballast with a new one and even changed the relay, but still of no use. Now only the main wiring harness of the kit remains to be checked. But if the main harness has a fault then shouldn't both the bulbs get affected? Anyone aware of such HID issues? Waiting for your inputs. Thanks. |

THanks a lot. FF 500 is too big and round for my liking. I love those oval shaped ones. The ones simmilar to those that came on my Fiat Adventure. What attracted me to the black magics are the compact size. I thought i could even try to fix it into the bumper. The Figo bumper is very close to the radiator and there is minimal space available. |

Are Black Magics Driving Lights? The price i mentioned was as quoted by the Hella person in cochin. If this is high where should i be looking for a good deal. |

You can try FF50/FF75 for 4.8-5K which is available in driving lights also, where the beam spread is also good. |

500 Black Magics and 500FFs are of the same size :D and yes, Hella markets them as driving lights. Not sure if the smaller ones are classified as driving or fog lamps. Check the Hella website. The prices are definitely higher than bangalore. The hella website gives the MRP of the lights. Compare against that first and try other accessory shops. If not, try to source from bangalore. |

Alternatively, you can call ADD-ON shop in JC Road, to be precise Siddiah Road. He has the best range of Lightforce & Hella Lamps along with Competetive price too |

Going for a higher wattage bulb and ceramic holders + relay would definitely void the warranty on a two year old Punto [with extended warranty] right ? Contemplating putting just the 90/100 bulbs on the Punto! |

Did you try putting 90/100 bulbs directly on Punto? I am looking to upgrade bulbs on my 1.5 year old Punto. Is it ok to put 90/100 bulbs on directly without any relay, ceramic holders? Wont the head lamps black out? EDIT: OT: Is there some thread here on Tbhp where I can understand all these jargons like HID, projector set up, Ceramic holders etc etc? As a newbie, I am clueless about what some of these posts talk about? |

Yes I upgraded the Punto with 100/90 Phillips Rally Bulbs and a wiring kit which came with a relay and ceramic holders. Lighting is much much better now! I just ensure to switch off the headlights when the vehicle is not in motion. |

I have been looking into fitting my Octavia with better lights. Wanted to fit driving lamps with a long throw. Liked the looks of the Hella Micro DEs priced at 5.5 K .a pair, but these were Fog lights( with a wide diffused spread). Finally, happened to run into Hella 60 mm Modules. These are projecter driving lights and priced at only 2.8 K a pair. NOW has any Bhpian used these ? Any feedback ? They seem too good to be trueclap: I plan (this week) to remove the slats on my Octy bumper to decide the best possible position |
