Hi

I just bought some 911 headlights from a company in the UK http://www.design911.co.uk, I also bought a HID conversion from them that looks promising.

Hi

My 911 headlights just arrived from the UK, I also ordered a Xenon kit.

I've temporarily given up on adapting the Hella modules that I have.

steve. any chances you could set the lights up & show us what they are like for both high & low beam, compared to the lights in daves bug maybe? im curious to see them, shame i wasnt at yours one day later, heading home to reality tomorrow, such a shame!

I'd be interested in seeing that too Steve. Looks like it's going to be a good set-up.

Does anyone know if the Airkewld HID kit provides for both high and low beams?

Hi

I can do that, just need a bit of time to do a proper test. Might even do a youtube video.

I found these a while ago, and have been thinking about trying a set once I've got a little more money set back. Thought maybe you guys would be interested.

There are a few different HID options in the dropdown menu

Looks good but for us non sealed beam pre67 headlight owners it wouldn't work.

I've got something like these as standard Golf (Rabbit) conversions for clear lens applications. I have wired the main and dip together so that I get a total of 115W of output per lamp on main beam that with the 50% extra output from the bulbs is equivalent to 172W! (90W/82.5W) each side.

I see that the HID conversion is also advertised but as I said earlier most conversions are 'for off road use only' in Europe as our Regs require a tight pattern control on the HIDs that the conversions cannot guaranttee especially with older glass patterned lenses.

My plan was to use a standard 60's sloper headlight but just adapt the Arkewld HID bulb units to fit the reflector. Anyone got a view on whether this would work?

Of course I don't yet know whether those items have the facility of a high/low beam option. I guess I'd better mail Pete at Arkewld and ask.
