Isn't it illegal though to install HID on cars that don't come with it from the factory? I remeber reading about it in a Silicone Chip mag. It was either HID or another technology...
I think in europe they r illegal if they don't have a self leveling unit thing, but in aus there is no law saying they r illegal, i have not heard of anyone get done for them either

globes need to match the orginal size, so you can't bring them over to your next car, however you can still transfer the ballast, which is the most expensive part, and get globes to fit your new car
