Question Where to get HID Bulbs from??

Where can you buy replacement HID bulbs from. In particular, Bi-Xenon bulbs??

I have been quoted £95 for one!!!

Abit steep me thinks!. Surely they can be had for less??

These are the type I'm talking about. From X5 Bi-Xenon kits.

Try www.autolamps-online.com, and www.powerbulbs.co.uk

The price won't be a million miles off though

Doh!! Bought one from there in the end, didnt mention Scoobynet though!

Can I get the refund of the difference though?? Seeing as they charged me £9.99 to deliver!!

Also, never received any kind of receipt at all.

£95.00 is cheap to be honest. You would normally pay £120.00 for a bulb unless you had bought the kit from them in the first place. P&P is always an awkward subject. They tend to use Special Delivery which is not cheap, then their is the cost of the packing and the labour/transport costs in packing it up and getting it to the Post Office.

Recorded delivery is cheaper but insurance cover is inadequate as is traceability.
