HID Lights.

Looking at changing my parker lights and the low beam to 6000k.
I am confused about one thing, do I need to buy a kit for the parker lights and low beam? Or can I just change the bulb / globe.

I bought a pair of D2S 6000k HID bulbs then bought a pair of 501 matching sidelight bulbs separately.
had to remove arch liner for access to bulbs as just too tight for my hands

In Australia we don't have side marker lights, Kev, just a reflector

I'm not sure about the low beam replacements but I don't think you can get HID parkers, as they are a low wattage wedge globe. Your best bet would be to get some LED's from 2XS (there is a thread titled "white light kits" on here) otherwise get Philips Crystal Vision T10 wedge parkers

You can buy just the LED to replace the parkers. Simple job to fit.

For the indicators, you can fit LEDs too, but, you will need to fit load resistors aswell, so it blinks at the correct speed.

As suggested above, if you already have the std HIDs, you can buy D2S bulbs in 6000k and you only need to replace the bulb. PITA job, it requires removal of either the headlight, or alot of stuff from behind them.

Something like this will work for your Parkers

And this for your fogs. These are for 9006 bulb type. Not sure what it is for the MPS6.

6000K (now have 8000K) and led parkers looks something to the effect of (see below)

Looks great rogwick! Was all you changed the bulbs? Or did you need a whole kit?

[rogwick]

I've changed just about every globe in my car. No kit required. Just a straight bulb swap from the standard 4300K HID to 8000K (its a D2S bulb)
The parklights are ultra bright LED's (wedge globe) my fogs are just a normal globe, however phillips ultra white and much brighter than standard, LED fogs are useless in terms of light
If you look on that shot the interior lights are changed to blue as well as the doors, white LED in the front MAP lights.

[rogwick]

The low beam bulb (HID) is a D2S
