Hi guys Just donated so looking to get ma stika HA!
To the point, Ive ...

Red devil has a company who can supply HID kits so hang on till he relies.. but you have to be careful what you use as some are not MOT legal..

Re: HID Kit ( Wnt to change side lights to full beam lights)!!
Thanks scottie, i looked on them sites but still confused, as to what size i need. I know the temp im after its 10k but theres so many kits im gettin confused lol! I havent yet seen a kit that does the side lights too... so im wondering how x3me got his done...
If someone could give me a kit model they used that made all the lights HID (dipped high and sidlights) that would be great!!

Re: HID Kit ( Wnt to change side lights to full beam lights)!!
Dipped Beam is H7
Main Beam is H1
what other info you need mate? just ask

Done some reasearch and there are actually no HID's available for the sidelights.... What you have to get is LED'S lol. So ive now found my kit, of which im going to have to purchase 2 1 for hi and 1 for lo beam and the guy will chuck in the sidelights free for me :D!!! Scottie thanks for lettin me know the sizes mate.

hi mate the problem is that the Stilo has a system which checks the circuitry of the lights constantly in order to ensure that the bulbs etc are funcitoning. In order to do this it checks the voltage across the individual system (For example Front near side, side light) if for example on a standard bulb the voltage is 12v IN, 9.7v out, then that is what the Stilo computer would expect (give or take a slight tolerance to allow for varying bulb grades) HOWEVER when you stick an LED in then, the resistance is much MUCH less etc, so the computer will recognise this and throw up a bulb warnign / malfunction, the same will go for your HID Kit, YES they will work, but you will be constantly reminded by the BEEP BEEP warning and the message of Bulb error etc etc.
What you will need to do, is measure the voltage resistance across the normal bulbs, and match that with your new kit, using resistor / variable resistor.
There are kits you can buy to alleviate these problems, but unfortunately there is no guarentee with the sensitivity of the Stilo system they will work.
Why not just swap for a good quality Xenon???
