ellis Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Anybody got any good suggestions for reputable places to get replacement HID bulbs (9005) as one of mine has gone pop. Don't need ballasts, just the bulbs. Plenty on ebay but you just never know do you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellis Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share Posted April 26, 2013 I've filed down some old HIDs for now and ordered a new pair from GayBay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slugger1 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 I ended up buying a new set of HIDs because I hadn't a clue where to get a replacement bulb from (they were fitted on the car when I bought it so didn't have a clue what type they were!).

Richie1985 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Will these fit a facelift? I bought some HID's but going from the guide in technical I ordered 9006 bulbs, but the fitting is way off and they wont sit far enough in to twist into place.

Graham1984 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Well surely you will either be Hb3 9005 or Hb4 9006 fitting wise which a combination of the two covers the jspec and uk headlights dipped and main beam. Ellis did you order these in the end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brazil Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Do you mean the w5w fitting sidelights? No I mean, the 55w HID complete kits.. like they one sold on the group buy here? I've tried contacting the original seller from the group buy but he hasn't replied..! Apparently the 55w makes a huge difference..! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham1984 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I got a pair, yes - installed and all 'brighty whitey' again. Good stuff, they were pretty quick when I ordered mine too, 4300k? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis Posted April 28, 2013 Author Share Posted April 28, 2013 6000K - I used next day delivery. They came with slimline ballasts (although I only ordered bulbs for £9.95!) but they didn't work! So I used my old ballasts with the new bulbs and they're fine. Used a different supplier to the link though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
