Haha thanks guys! After a bit of focusing, the HIDs are incredible! Cannot believe ive gone so long without them!
Got them from ebay (recommended by Chris aka TH37OY). Though they were $20 extra for postage. Decided to drive down after work on fri as petty would cost less (Killara).
Its some home office type setup with a storage room FULL of globes! HIDs, halogen, LEDs, etc.

The girl asked me if i wanted the standard ballasts or for an extra $12, i could get these much smaller, newer, longer lasting ballasts. They fit perfectly underneath the headlight assembly with all the wiring clumped behind (visible)...ill try and clean it all up one day!

I was a bit unsure about the parkers Buzzzzz... They are meant to be white but turned out more of a blue. I guess up against the actual blue ones there will be a big difference! Also still got the halogen highbeams in. They do jack all now the HIDs are in ... and they look orange from inside looking onto the road!

Good choice, you won't regret it Morgan! Annnnd, how cool do they look when they come up to temp B) You'd probably want to take those park lights out ASAP. They're way too blue and an easier thing for cops to defect you on than your headlights (which almost look stock). I've got a couple spare LED park lights which are bright white you can have if your keen. Whats next on the cards?

Ooh thatd be great! How much do you want for the parkers? Are they the SMD ones? Ive found they are the whitest. Not sure whats next. I like the idea of the front strut brace Joe offered me. Id also like a 22mm rear sway bar and to lower it. Ultimately, to get the handling up to scratch is my goal. Ive got a few things in mind in regard to appearance but itll most likely have to wait until after the wedding. Incl retint the windows, dent removal on tailgate, Gen3 RX sedan grille, and replace the passenger side foglight which has the stonechip (there is one on ebay at the moment which ill look into). Colour coding in the distant future :)

You can have 'em, they're not worth an aweful lot. I'm not sure which type they are but I'll try take a pic when I get a chance today or tomorrow. It illuminates white.

I'd seriously consider Joe's offer because it was a quality product at properly good price. Won't affect ride quality or anything like that...just gets things a little bit tighter, one of the best mods I made to my Lib.

Dont mind the foggies still being halogen. It really is just too bright for oncoming traffic as is! 4300k HIDs a really white - parkers are white LEDs which still look blue next to the HIDs! Maybe 6000k would look similar?
