Not much help with your decision, but I'm pretty sure Bootyman has HID angel eyes.

So how long do the HID bulbs last ? They don't look cheap compared to an old xenon.

take your headlights apart in the oven? :? how would you manage that then without getting burned and it would also be a bit cramped :mad:

its probably a bit of bull shit who ever told you about putting lights in the oven, sorry but it just seems pointless to make lights that you have to put in the oven. :mad:

it is actualy true well to a point

its just to soften the glue that holds the lens on
but from what i hear it frequently goes wrong and ends in an angry wife left with an oven full of melted headlight :lol: :violin:

I paid £250 for the Angels and £220 for the Exenons, plus £80 to have the 2 married, so that's £550, so i'm looking around £400 for them. I can also get my mate to fit them, although they are already done so it's a plug and play thing now winkeye
