You'll need to throw money at the car. Not on parts. Just stand near your car and throw loose change at it, I find this increases performance for a short period of time

cheers. Will try some ultra white ones first prior to going down the HID conversion route. As mentioned above its probably very unlikely to to be something the police would pull you for on the grand scheme of things


Depends. Thing is a car is very obvious with try-hard aftermarket HID lights fitted in units that are not designed for them - very distinctive looking as the HIDs seem to illuminate the lens itself, does not shine through it like factory fitted HIDs or normal lights, easy to spot them 100m away. It is not like the coppers need a magnifying glass to see them. Other road users thinking you are a knob is potentially the least of your problems. If you have an accident an insurance assessor if he spots them could declare the car not legally roadworthy despite a current MOT in the same way as a car with illegally worn tyres, then they refuse to pay out.

Good luck talking your way out of that.
