[s-cars] DOT HID Low Beam Conversion (Pics and write up)

[James Murray (LMC)]

Thanks Tom!

I'll answer what I can for you.

Yes, I agree, I'll send it to the listmeisters as Igor calls them ;-). LLTEK
caters to the Audi market, perhaps that's why the ballast doesn't effect the
Auto-Check lamp system but I'd say the kits should fit any car as long it's
the right bulb replacement. I don't know who manufactures the bulbs and
ballasts, best to ask them. Yes, the bulbs are 5000K.

LLTEK caters mostly to the new Audi, but as some know, I've been trying to
get them to develop some styling products. The HID was one of the extras I
wanted them to offer, so I took the plunge, installed them and did a write
up!

Cheers, /James.
P.S. I sure would like a set of those Silvervision...

	    Bravo, James!  Splendid job on the posting.  IMHO this needs to
be in
	the S-car and URS4 tech archives.  The LLTEK site references new
S-4/A-4.
	Was the kit specifically for those models and generally for any
projector
	headlamp?  Who manufactured the bulbs and ballast?  Did you find the
deg K
	ref for these bulbs?   I suppose some of this I should direct at
LLTEK.
	    I think the interest in HID and dash lights is directly related
to age.
	I have been looking at info at <www.autolamps-online.com/home.htm>.
I don't
	throw them out here as an alternative source, because of unanswered
	questions about their kits, ie compatability with auto-lamp, etc.
But they
	do have an interesting dog-n-pony show on halogen, hid, olfarts
vision, etc.
	I find the site entertaining and informative, and do have the
silvervision
	invisible sidelights that flash amber.  Unfortunately the guys are
in
	Chester,UK.
