Default Recommend me some HID's!

I'm looking for a set of H4 bi-xenon high/lo beam HID's, preferably 4300k or 5000k at the very most!
Anyone have any links to kits that they have bought and are impressed with etc?

Cheers

Yeah I want them to look as close to OEM as possible, besides I don't like the chav tinge of blue you get with the higher k ones.

Yeah I'm aware of that, but the current lights on my Sax are terrible, like candles!

I shan't be fitting them myself I don't think, wouldn't want them done incorrectly or anything and dazzle other road users, I get annoyed at other people dazzling me so know what it's like!

for them to be correct, you will be Auto adjusting projecting headlights, with washers.
which the saxo does not have available.

try Osram Nightbreakers for better bulbs! i have just changed to Ring XenonUltima 120% but with a colour temp of 2500k i think they went the best choice, but coverage is great.

i will be going nightbreakers next!

Well tbh as long as they don't dazzle other road users then I'll be happy.

My friend had those Osram Nightbreaker's in his Saxo and he said they were terrible, worst bulbs he had tried!

I did look into getting a decent set of bulbs but then I thought I may aswell fork out the extra for a decent set of HID's.
