I can now offer a HID headlamp kit for £280 + VAT. Kit comes complete with 2 bulbs, 2 power packs and all wiring needed. I fitted a kit to my car a few days ago and what a difference, very very good and well worth the money.
If there is enough interested I could do a group buy.
Cheers

There seems to be some interest in General discussion of all places!
How easy wa it to fit Paul? - I've never even seen what's involved?
Hi Paul,

Very easy to fit indeedy, took me about an hour approx.
do you have the correct "p" type bulbs? What rating does the lights have?

P type?
From MVP site:
This is the genuine High Intensity Discharge (Xenon) light kit for the Supra. These are not cheap bulbs that look like xenon bulbs - these are the real thing - and yes they are the made specifically for the MK4 Supra. The kit includes the wiring harness & ballasts & lights. The kit plugs directly into the factory wiring harness so there is no splicing necessary. It will take you 15 minutes to hook everything up and then you'll have genuine xenon low beam lights. The difference between our kit and others cheaper kits is that 1) our kit uses 9006P (P = Projection) bulbs where others use cheaper 9006 bulbs which ARE NOT THE CORRECT OPTICAL PATTERN FOR THE SUPRA!! and 2) our kit is supplied by Phoenix Microlite which backs the Philips kit with a 5 year warranty. Saving $50 with another company (or worse yet - an individual) is not worth it if you have a ballast go out and have to spend $200 to replace it because there is no warranty or because you can't reach the person you bought it from!

Yep no probs there, I had a set of 96on lamps come up though so I thought I'd have them...
Cool.
They will looks sweet on your black car :)
I might have to see how Matt H's painted UK spec lights last and then have a go myself.
