		Guys stop having this argument.
 There is no law that makes retrofit HIDs illegal. If you are going to try telling me otherwise I would like to know the act and section and the exact wording otherwise [/argument]

That's a bit selfish isn't it? It might benefit you but people in front of you and coming towards you can't see anything.

Yours are through projector lenses though, of which produces the correct beam pattern as well as being levelled well (by myself and the MOT tester)
 
I agree with mark, yes technically they are illegal without the officially needed items however in a projector lense it is very hard to tell any difference from oem xenon headlights

		I agree entirely that projectors are far better as the beam isn't scattered to feck but it doesn't change them being illegal as Connor says

They are exactly the same in ph2 and 3 for the same reason and yeah, that opinion is shit I agree, "let everyone else deal with it by crashing onto me because they can't see...."
