HID Upgrade
« on: 06 April 2011, 20:52:40 »

Just upgraded the lights on the Black Facelift CD from projectors to HIDs and can't believe it was so easy. It took all of 30 minutes to do both sides. Jimbob will be seeing the black one knocking around his neck of the woods soon ;)

OOF stickers already in the back  :)

Glad it was so easy, as I have to do the same to mine as soon as I get time  - which is easier said than done at the moment.
This car breaking mullarkey can be hard work Pete. ::) ;D
