Pantelis,

THANK YOU for posting this here, I've been watching
these kits for quite some time now.  Dave, I would not
recommend putting HID lights in a DOT housing.  They
would throw light everywhere, and the effect would be
like having your brights on times ten.  Obviously some
people don't even like the idea of you doing this:) I
would even be reluctant to try it in a regular euro
light.   Now a good projector lens like the RS2 lights
would probably work well.  Part of the reason I put
them on my car was because I wanted to go HID once the
prices came down.  I also know that people have fitted
the kits to the halogen A4 projector lights.
