M Style Xenons

M330Touring · 06-29-2010, 03:20 PM

My car does not have xenons and I would like to have them for the better visibility that they offer. I see that M Style are offering xenon conversion kits at reasonable prices. Does anybody have experience of them, are they good quality and do they work well, with no error messages.

Been done to death, you can use the

to find previous discussions. Halogen reflectors with new Xenon (HID) bulbs will blind other drivers due to the fact that the bulb patterns are different and need different reflectors.

Lots of opinions on whether Xenon's also need headlamp washers and self levelling kits to be legal and pass an MOT.

Yep and I have used it, but my question was specific about the quality of the kit that 'M Style' sell and I couldn't find a reference to their kit!

My remark as really based on the Xenon look bulbs needing to be a cooler temperature, which tends to reduce light output, they might look more modern to the untrained eye, but the lights usefulness is compromised.

+1, I ve had a few of motors with HID & Xenons etc, but my standard halogens offer excellent vision..seriously I think the vision with the halogens is wider, long/short range superior, and the high beam is as bright as f**k......I'reckon people want to change them for asthetics !

I upgraded my bulbs to some 4000k 'xenon' bulbs and the light output is fantastic compared to the standard Halogens (quite disgraceful on a £35-36k car, as new) - I would go as far as saying the light quality between the factory fitted HID's/projectors and these Phillips bulbs in negligible from behind the wheel. Of course, the Projectors have a lovely look about them, externally, but If your like me - then you will just appreciate better light at night.
