Posting this on behalf of a relative.
BULB ISSUE:
They've picked up a 54-plate that appears to have factory fitted HIDs. I believe the bulbs are D2S? Problem is the light output is quite poor and we're not 100% sure what the cause is. Whether it's crappy bulbs or something going on with the lens itself.
The drivers side seems 'better'. The passenger one seems to point lower for some reason. The previous owner appears to have been a fan of the blue-tint bulb (probably around the 6000K rating). Not knocking anyone who's in to that kind of thing but relative & I prefer the more white look of about a 4300K is it?
Preferring not to shell out 3-figures for bulbs, what's regarded as some decent bulbs to buy for this (that aren't blue)? Any takers on the cause of the output being so poor?
OIL:
Usually buy oil from Opie Oils. I know it's 5w/40 but what brand do you guys prefer to get in? Just wondering what the community choose to get really.
The car may have featured on here or other forums maybe since it's had a ton of owners. I think my relative is now the 8th owner. FM54HGA is the reg. Colour is grey.
