    HID adventures

    I've been having difficulty too getting a HID kit for the Beat. I recently ordered this kit from HongKong (eBay):

    Unfortunatley, I ordered wrong size bulbs, H4, not H4H. So, I got back to them and ordered a pair of H4H bulbs, again 6000k. They arrived last week, but as you can see only have low beam, not Hi/Low.

    While I was waiting for these, and as I had a bulb out, I ordered a pair of PIAA Super white Halogen bulbs:

    These work just fine and I think I will give up on the HIDs as they are not really suitable for housings without reflectors. I also understand it's illegal to retro fit them to cars without reflectors, and risks blinding oncoming traffic.
