The dipped is so good that I very rarely use high-beam these days.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have become increasingly frustrated with not being able to see anything at night with the old Halogens on my 996. A mate of mine said that there are HID conversion kits available to upgrade to Xenons. Is this true, and, if so, can anyone recommend the best (and easiest to fit) kit? In addition, I would like to upgrade all the other bulbe (front and rear) to LEDs or the best lights available. Can anyone recommend kits (or individual bulbs) for these? Thanks gut=ys.

POST 2Original post

HI Jesster - If you search on here there is even a guide somewhere with pictures. - Simon

POST 3Original post

I can HIGHLY recommend www.ultraleds.co.uk for led bulbs. As for HiD conversion, I will be doing this, I have seen them as low as £89 for a kit. As long as the kit is BS approved you will be fine and covered by trading standards etc, I feel they are much of a muchness.

POST 4Original post

I can recommend the kit from Aceparts - at £105 delivered, it's a bargain & makes the world of difference at night. :thumb:

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks guys. Nick, Is the kit easy to fit or do you need to have it done by a specialist? Mark.

POST 6Original post

It's easy. You need a method of drilling out a 40-50mm diameter hole (can't remember exactly) from the rear of the plastic cover over the bulbs. I used a Dremel. It's very thin plastic and the outline of the hole is already stamped into the cover for you to follow. Wiring is a doddle & you really can't go wrong. Total time for both sides is under an hour.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks Nick, Am I correct in assuming that this is dipped beam only? If so, can you upgrade the main beam and foglights? Mark.

POST 8Original post

Yes, dipped only. I don't suppose there's any technical reason it can't be done on the other ones, but I don't know of anyone who has. The dipped is so good that I very rarely use high-beam these days. I've got uprated Xenon bulbs in my high-beams but they still look feeble compared to the HID's.

POST 9Original post

Hi guys, I bought the kit from www.hids4u.co.uk for about £100. Auto audio in park royal, west london, fitted them so well that they even move with the level control which ive heard is not always possible. They give a lovely blue/white glow at night and light up the whole road without dazzling anyone. PS. quote total 911 for 10% discount ;-) Absolutely fautless after service care too. peter
