hello from Wolverhampton - Rughead - 2:nd-Feb-2015
Hi, my first post. As an owner of a "regular red" GTC cdti 2.0 with 19" upgrade alloys and standard everything else I wondered what could be done to improve/ look after my new metal baby.

Welcome. There's alot you could do depends what it is you want to do.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I'd love to do a HID conversation, but I'm worried about wearing the bulbs out when flashing when headlights off as the bulbs need a warm up. Of course I should retro fit the AFL's to be legal.

There are hid kids out there for this that do also do high beam.

I'm not too sure mate I will find a set tomorrow and post a link I've never used HID kits myself.
