Well a HID kit will need wiring in and cost between £60-200.

It will look mint but you also need to modify your headlight a little.

HID look are just normal halogen bulbs but whiter/bluer.

Dunno I've never used them.

Technically they're illegal.

ive got a proper HID kit - there is no substitute, its been through its MOT with them fitted and ive never had any problems. make sure you fit them to facelift projector headlights and you will be fine. all HID effect fakeys are pointless.

I like the idea of it but dont like the effect of modding the headlight to fit them, I would be afraid of water getting in and looking cra@p

Check my signature for a link to a thread of some pictures of peoples HID kits fitted, Its straight forward for wiring the kits in, can just be awkward getting into the head light units.
Best thing i ever bought for the corsa in my opinion!
