why you just sort your headlight adjustment, lences and good bulbs. people believe prelude lights are crap, but good sorting out and lights are perfect, i did headlights for 2 customers and they didnt believe what difference good sort out can make

10k's wont be as bright as 6k's, but they will look more purple.

Just finished installing mine, before you do anything snip off and replace the spade connectors, they don't conduct what so ever so will have you thinking you have a dud kit!

Other than that it took 10 minutes and I'm actually quite happy with the 13 quid splash out!

And will get you pulled over every 5 minutes.

The best is 4300K, which is the colour OEMs use as it is the highest light output.

Remember to keep original bulbs for MOT time. These will be a fail as you they don't self level, have headlight washers or are in a projector.
