Buy OE JDM HID lights and not some aftermarket guff sh#te.

Unless it is a GC8 which have reflectors that are rubbish. Better bulbs are really the only real option. And brighter is not better if you fit aftermarket HIDs.

What model is it?
You could go for a PROPER HID conversion using projectors?
see here: https://www.theretrofitsource.com/

It's in the USA, but dead easy to deal with, and the acknowledged experts.

beware of cheap ebay copies!

Are they classic morettes??? I'd buy them off you if they are in poor shape. I'm in Cambs too.

No worries with that. Just got my scoob at Extreme Scoobies for a cam belt service and a power steering pump and diff replacement..... Going to live with the lights for now but will do something early next year. I put up the post with the car in for a service and found the extra problems so money going on that not the lights at the moment. How desperate are you for them?

Give me a shout whenever you are ready to move them on and we'll try and sort something out.
I have some standard headlights here if you were looking for some to replace the morettes, I'm sure we can sort something either way.
