Extreme HID kit is in the house!!

[Fat Audi 80]

Thanks to Martyn I have my hands on an Extreme HID kit!

I will be taking some "before" shots tonight of the standard lighting set up and then hopefully be fitting the HID kit at the weekend and posting the "after" pics...

Can't wait!

Cheers,

Steve.

Let me know how you get on mate. Mines coming soon

[Fat Audi 80]

Will do. I will be using the Martyn F instructions from the VAGparts website as advised....

[Bibby]

HID's are very cool. You'll love them.

[Fat Audi 80]

I am going to be running round with them on ALL the time!!

At last they will match my extreme white sidelights too!

You got me! :mischeif:

I guess we all do it without realising it!!

[Martynf]

you are welcome!! just you wait until you drive up behind a dark metallic blue car with these on... I'll say no more.

Well Fat Audi 80, Let's have a look

Any pictures yet of before and after?
I quite regularly still get flashed by oncoming traffic for my HIDs, I'd be interested to see how you get on with other drivers with these Extremes...

[Fat Audi 80]

Errm, didn't want to post this, but since you ask I am having a few teething troubles with the kit. Needless to say Martyn is being fantastically helpful, so all being well I should have some results for you all soon!

Stay tuned!

Cheers,

Steve

I am planning to set them up quite low and use the adjustable headlight aim wheel inside the car to keep them low....

I am not too keen on being blinded by these things myself.

Got my Extreme upgrade ballasts today.
Thanks Martyn.
Unfortunately unable to fit them at present as I have one arm in a cast and likely to require two hands to be fully operational to do the job.
I am upgrading from the regular HID kit. I will try & take some before and after pics etc. when I am able to get it fitted.

[Mark Halligan]

Fitted mine last weekend, and was pleasantly suprised to find it only took an hour or so to get done.
I didn't really try them out until tonight, what a difference! They turn night to day, what a 'brilliant' (LOL) upgrade!

Also had no problems with blinding other motorists.....well no one let me know anyway.

Thanks Martyn, top upgrade

Mark.

PS by the way I haven't had any probs with the autocheck yet, I was expecting to have to fook about with the relay???

[dan_b]

How much brighter? Any pictures?
Mark I haven't had any issues with Autocheck yet either and it's been about 9 months since installing them. The only thing that it does have a hernia about is if I hold the "flash" position for more than about 3 seconds, which of course you'd never do in normal driving, but that causes it to beep.
