mactell Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Hi there, I am looking to get brighter headlights or even led lights around the headlights. I preferably want something like xenon headlights Does anyone know how much these are and how much they are normally to get fitted? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGersFord Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Welcome to the club. Just so you know HIDs (xenon headlights) are illegal unless manufacturer fitted. You can get the icy white colour that xenon headlights produce by fitting a set of Philips Diamond Vision 5000k headlight bulbs. The bulbs arent strictly legal but you'll never get pulled up for them and if you do you'll most likely just be told to change them as opposed to HIDs which would invalidate your insurance if you get caught out with them. Theres plenty of newer style headlight units that you can fit though. 2 mins and ill post you a link to a few headlights :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that Dave. Do they look good and are you able to see more on the road itself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1g_dav3 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 A lot more, had to go back to my standard bulbs for now as car is going soon, and a massive difference if honest. Just they're not technically legal, but after 18 months haven't been pulled or flashed at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactell Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 Hmm fair enough may have to look into this. Only thing is I hate fitting things myself as I normally mess it up lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And would I need to tell my insurance company about this, would it put the price up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGersFord Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Yes they will definately fit. They're all headlights that ive considered fitting to my own car. Your car is a fiesta mk 6.5 but most of the time parts are listed under mk6 and most mk6 parts will fit. Yes you would need to inform your insurance company and it would make the price go up but only slightly because its not a performance modification.

mactell Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 I really don't see why fitting better headlights would put the insurance up? If anything its safer because you can see more of the road ahead?! it doesn't make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactell Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 Also could you tell me if these are the ones you have? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FORD-FIESTA-MK6-6-5-TWIN-BLACK-ANGEL-EYE-HEADLIGHTS-/380532788084 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGersFord Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Thats just the way insurance companies work buddy lol you make a modification they rub their hands together lol if you dont tell them and you have and accident they could turn round and say your insurance is void and that they wont pay out. And yes thats the ones ive got. Im considering changing to these though soon; http://www.morette.com/products/HEADLIGHTS/FORD/Fiesta/Fiesta%202002/hl_fd_fiesta_02.htm they can be colour coded to your car and are meant to be a lot brighter than standard headlights because they give you four lights instead of 2 :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactell Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 £150 for them ones you got at the minute seem quite expensive for some lights lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGersFord Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Theyre quite cheap compared to most of the other aftermarket headlights. I only paid £119 for them but I cant find the link for them at that price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
