my friend tells me as of january i may get stopped by police for having hids in headlights that are designed for haolgen bulbs, is there any truth behind this as i dont really fancy spending 50 quid on a hid kit for an officer to give me either a 60 pound fine, points, or a defect form or a mixture of all 3!!!
i know the mot rule that is coming in jan that unless a car is fitted from the manufacture with hids it wont pass 1 with them in which aint an issue to change them once a year.
also i am aware that hids are not suitable for reflector headlights as it causes too much glare for oncoming drivers but i was under the influence that with projector headlights it makes the hids legal as the beam is focused in the correct way.
HID's and a few important points??
