Thanks guys, I just checked and you can get a twin H4 HID set from HIDS4U.co.uk for £110.10 using the 'strathy' discount code!
Anything I should know or be aware of before buying and trying to install these? I've currently got a pair of Osram Nightbreakers that I was about to replace my existing lamps with. Osram Nightbreakers £10 for a pair Twin HIDS £110 are they worth the extra £100? All advice and help appreciated. |

According to Ride magazine this month the human eye gets progressively worse with age. So by reckoning I need to increase my pension contributions now to afford strong enough lights by the time I hit 60.
I wonder how long it will be before insurance companies use this as an excuse the hike up the prices for older riders?

sorry, my bad.
didn't see that the hids-direct one are in fact a complete set of two!! and yes they have put the price up by like £3.59 in the last few hours. even with that they are by far the cheapest. are these the ones you have? any trouble? what's the quality like? can you tell me what the h4-3 part means in the items title... is it compatible with h4 and h3 lamps or something? got all my info from checking the websites and (albeit half arsedly) reading the info on each item. |
