Easiest thing to do is leave the stupid things in the box and fit some nice Osram or Bosch headlamp bulbs and correctly align your beam pattern.

Then you wont be blinding everyone else with blue light scattered everywhere.
Or fail your MOT.

I think he has a MK6, decent hid's work well in MK6's (unlike MK7's). The ballasts can be fitted close to the back of the light units.

[Tricky4511]

Yes I have the mk6 and thnx for the reply.

So I was trying to fit these tonight but ended up trying to find a place to put the ballast box, I think this is a good spot what do you guys think?

If any body has a mk6 where did you put yours

[Mike]

Yep, that's where I put them on my MK6.

[Tricky4511]

thnx mike I thiought that was to best/only place to put them.

So I was fitting the bulbs today just to see the best way to fit the wiring but I notice that you cant put the cover back on the rear of the headlight as the new wires would get cut off... Whats the best way to route the cables from the back of the headlights pics wouuld be nice.

[Mike]

The HIDS4U kits come with a large rubber grommet, you cut a 30mm hole in the plastic cover and feed the wires through, then seal it with the grommet.

[Tricky4511]

any links to spare grommets?
