Depends what year your car is.

Main beam on HID / Projector Headlamp cars is H7, original headlamps are H1

Hi.

I have a 99 (Mini Facelift???) CD spec.

I have the ellipsiod headlights?

But bog standard halogen bulbs.

I quite fancy HID dipped beam.

Do you guys still recommend these and have a link?

Will mine be H1 or H7 for dipped?

I will check before I buy but you know, might as well ask the question.

Make it more of "executive" cruiser with HID's.

Think ill get some with next months pay packet and some better bulbs for hi/full beam.

No worries mate :)

It's just got a few niggly things that need to be done, the rockers are pissing oil out again and the EGR pipe has split so rather than run her in a state I've been abusing the Mondeo for the last 3 weeks :)

on the plus side I got this months insurance for the Omega.... £11 :)

God bless PAYG insurance
