Contacted a ebay member regarding what bulbs I needed as could only find pairs of the same bulb but didn't want to buy 2 sets. Explained I needed a H1 bulb and a H4 bulb in one set. Said he could do it for me no problem. Cost me £30 and was able collect to make sure I got what I needed. Paid cash bought them home and fitted them both. The H4 bulb was just a straight swap over into the headlight bracket but the h1 bulb was a bit more Fettling as the standard H1 bulb slots into a housing which in turn then connects to the wiring block. The HID H1 bulb is straight through with direct contact to the ballast and the bulb is to skinny for the spring clamp to hold the bulb in housing.
So had to make a bracket to hold the HID in place. Nothing better than the original housing. Drilled out the contact pins and and hollowed it out and the HID bulb slotted in. Cut a gap in the housing so the cables would sit in, slid it all back through the rubber cover, used Velcro on both ballasts and igniters and secured under the infill panel. All nice and neat. Voila daylight beams at night.. Will upload pics tomorrow. Hope this makes sense to someone who may upgrade theirs..

It's not a speed limit it's a target
