Nice DIY - perfect timing for when I get my kit, which should hopefully be sometime this year lol. A picture of the ballast mounted up would be good.

It costs 205.73 pounds which equals to USD$331.89!!!! That's before their shipping!
Mine costs much much less and guaranteed to work and beat the competition!

he knows his stuff when it comes to lighting and he has got loads of good feedback. Also he got back to all my pm's pretty much straight away which is more that I can say for the other vendor I dealt with and IMO is a sign of good service.
I went for the low beams 6000k normal
size balllasts as John said these are the closet match to OEM. I'll post up feedback once I get my kit (hopefully this week) and once it's installed.
