HID kit on Clio? Recommend it?

[Darius]

I haven't got my Clio yet but when I get it I plan to fit a HID kit into the standard headlights, is this something anyone in here has ever done? Is it recommended or not? (Sorry if this isn't in the right section)

This is the HID kit I've been looking at.

Don't ever do it. And I'd never ask a question again like this, unless you enjoy getting the s**t ripped outta you!

HID's are for projector headlights only. Not standard reflector headlights.

1) they look gash in standard headlights. 2) the glare is almost blinding and extremely annoying when the local prick in his fiesta is sitting behind you with hid's in reflector lights.

Ignore all the b****cks of - its fine if I aim my headlights on the floor.

If you like looking like a knob and pissing other drivers off, then go ahead

I'd never ask a question like this again? Well it's a good job I did ask otherwise I would of banged a set of HIDs in my clio and looked like a nonce. A forum is for asking questions such as the one I did not about 'getting the s**t ripped into you' for not knowing something. f**king come for some advice and this is what you get haha. All you needed to say was 'HIDs are for projector headlights only not reflector this will result in a blinding glare for other drivers and they won't look good in standard headlights' what's with the abuse?

 

[Billy.]

Abuse - none. Advice - yes.

You asked a question and I believe I answered it without outright abusing you.

No need to get your knickers in a twist.

"Forums are for advice" - yes well done. But they are also for opinions, if you don't like the opinions, don't post

What billy says is correct, piss me off no end.

 

[cjgower]

What's been said is correct but it does seem like everyday I read threads from people less well informed and they get talked to as if they are 5 years old because of it

I'll agree on that, and for once the question was asked in plain english, not 'lYk Dis Coz innit breadz!'

therefore, no need to rip the OP a new one, intentionally or not.

 

[Coby.]

The answer was generally correct however the wording was a little strong, Simple question just needed a simple answer.

Fckin hell, release the hounds!

Here's a little guide: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/show...lf-Levelling-Projectors-and-the-law-Explained

are you getting a Ph.1 or Ph.2? Or a Mk.3? Because I don't think you've got the right fitment for any Clio headlight.

Phase 2

I've recently got a 197 but it has normall yellowish headlights.

Can I put xenon or some other bulbs in to give the more white light?

Phase 2

Fairly easy to get the Xenons from a 1*2 then, best to get the whole setup but if you just want to put a kit in them then the fitment is D2S

That's pretty much what I want just to get away from the yellow glow! Can Clio xenons be fitted without washers?

If it's got projectors yes, you can swap them in if you haven't got them already.

lol, exactly my point, getting bored of seeing jumped up little mongs on here who can't be bothered to type properly.
the actual question itself i'd totally overlooked as i could actually understand it, and we all need help / advice at some point, which was given, even if a little blunt.

I can forgive the odd spelling / grammar mistake, as we all make them, i just get wound up needing a code key to read a post!

As for lexus lights and angel eyes, i think i heard someone loading a shotgun lmao

technically you need them to be legal. However you will still pass an MOT without them, and I doubt any copper will know that they didn't come without washers as standard.
