i've fitted hid kit to the fog lights of 2007 FFRR; light looks good but the left one goes off by itself from time to time. this light also seems to be a bit bluer light than the other side

Wondering whether that could be due to a bad connection or could it be due to the failure of either the bulb or the ballast?

are they chinese jobbys cos they tend to get faulty ballasts and bulbs.. ... - .- -.

And the power system on a FF played merry hell with cheap HID kits...

caught out they actually are - my sons use the same (h1 and h4) in their respective cars without having any hassles.

so i thought i will use the same

these lights are actually quite good when they're working ; but ...

any suggestions as to which brand, e.g. phillips,i should use. would like to get hids4u's kit but time won't allow that as I'm going on a 4,000km trip next week and want to have the lights in before then.

btw phillips confirmed that theirs is not necessarily canbus compatible

try swapping the bulb or ballast with the working side to see which is faulty..


i'd also avoid hid's and get cree leds.. ... - .- -.

"and get cree leds.."

@stan - will the advantage of using cree leds over hid kit include improved lightning up of the road, etc.

High quality LED kit/replacement light... i.e. Osram do a very nice bright LED/DRL light kit...

Thats what i use

if you want maximum forward light projection then halogens are the best bet, you can get 'white' type bulbs that look very close to the 6000k leds/hids..

but you might want to consider something like mine which that chappy above [Craig] supplied..

lights not flickering anymore - solution: put a canceller on as the ballasts are not compatible with the Canbus system of the Range Rover

will see how it works on my 4500km trip next week

What is a canceller?

resister probably ... ... - .- -.
