HID Lights & Xenon HID Conversion Kits
Australian customers, please CLICK HERE for a list of all our HID kits in $AUD including GST |
High-intensity discharge (HID) lamps are a type of electrical lamp which produce light by means of an electric arc between tungsten electrodes housed inside a translucent or transparent fused quartz or fused alumina tube. This tube is filled with both gas and metal salts. The gas facilitates the arc's initial strike. Once the arc is started, it heats and evaporates the metal salts forming a plasma, which greatly increases the intensity of light produced by the arc and reduces its power consumption. High-intensity discharge lamps are a type of arc lamp. Compared with fluorescent and incandescent lamps, HID lamps have higher luminous efficacy since a greater proportion of their radiation is in visible light as opposed to heat. Their overall luminous efficacy is also much higher: they give a greater amount of light output per watt of electricity input.
HOW TO ORDER HID LIGHTS FOR YOUR CAR
STEP 1: Determine what globe (socket type) fits your car
Check in your vehicle’s manual to determine the type of globes your car takes. There are two main types of globes; ‘single beam’ and ‘dual beam’. ‘Single beam’ globe vehicles have a separate globe for high and low beams, and come in a variety of socket types (such as H1, H3, H4, H7, 9005, 9006, 9007, D2S, D2R etc) whilst dual beam globes operate both high and low beam from the one globe. If you do not have your car’s instruction booklet, then you can check the following sources for what globe types your car takes:
Advance Search
If your vehicle is not in the list above, then please contact your car dealer as to what globe socket type your vehicle requires.
Please note: Some globe types have different names as follows:

STEP 2: Decide what colour lights you want
Once you know the type of globes your car takes, you now choose the colour you would like your lights to be. ‘Normal’ halogen type globes appear a yellow colour since they ‘burn’ at a lower temperature than HID. HID lights in OEM vehicles such as BMW come from the factory at a colour temperature of 4300k. This is a bright light, but still has a slight yellow hue to it. 4,300k HID lights (usually) output the most amount of light than any other colour.





It is a common misconception, that the higher you go in colour temperature, (8000k, 10000k, 12000k) the brighter your headlights are. This is false. The higher you go in colour temperature the lower the actual amount of light that is put onto the road.
So what colour do you choose? 4300k is the OEM standard of factory HID lighting systems, which as mentioned is bright white with a slight yellow hue. 5000k is as close to pure white as you can get. 6000k is the most popular, as it is bright white with a slight blue tinge. Any higher than 6000k and you get a more noticeable blue tinge right up to 12,000k which is a blue / purple light. You can check the colour chart here for all the colours:
HID Xenon Colour Chart
We should also advise that over 6000k may be illegal in your area. You should check your local laws.

STEP 3: Decide if you want 35watt or 55watt HID lights
Most standard halogen light bulbs in your car are 55watts. They produce around 700 – 1000 ‘lumens’ of light onto the road. 'Lumens' is simply the word given to the measurement of light output. Another word sometimes used to describe the amount of light output is "Candlepower".
So traditional Halogen globes put out around 700 - 1000 lumens of light. 35watt HID kits by comparison put around 2800 – 3200 lumens of light onto the road (around 3 times brighter than normal halogen globes). 55watt HID kits put almost 5000 lumens of light onto the road – around 5 times brighter than normal halogens! 55watt HID are best suited for spot lights or high beams.
STEP 4: Pick which brand of HID you want
We offer 3 different HID kits:
-
Supervision Standard HID Kits in 35 watts
-
Supervision Deluxe HID Kits in 35 or 55 watts or
-
Phillips HID kits (the best globes you can buy) in 35 watts
Our standard Supervision HID kit is suitable for most cars and comes with a 12 month replacement warranty.
Our Supervision Deluxe HID kits come with higher quality ballasts, and are suitable for European type cars with a ‘Canbus’ electrical system. They have an 18 month replacement warranty, and also include our HID globe-buy-back offer.
The Phillips HID kits are simply the best HID kit on the market in our opinion. Phillips are recognised world-wide for producing the highest quality globes, and these are manufactured in German. These kits come with a 24 months replacement warranty.
The age old “you get what you pay for” is especially true with HID kits. We don’t bother selling the cheap and nasty kits you may find on eBay for under $100 for obvious reasons. We have been a registered Australian business since 2002 and we intend to stick around for the long term.
If you read through many car forums you will hear how most of these cheap kits fail in under 12 months leaving their owner with no option but to replace the lighting system with a better quality set. Don't waste your money on buying a cheap and nasty HID kit the first time round - only having to replace it a few months down the track. Our kits have a 12 - 24 months full replacement warranty which means if there is ever a problem, we replace the defective part for you.
STEP 5: Order Your HID kit Now!
There are 2 simple ways to order your new HID lights.
1) You can order online 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Just pick which brand of HID lights you want (Supervision standard, Supervision Deluxe or Philips HID) and select your globe type and colour from the drop down menu, and click "add to cart". If you already have a Paypal account, you can immediately checkout and your HID kit will be on its way. If you don’t have a Paypal account - that's perfectly OK - because you can still complete your order and pay online with Visa or MasterCard through Paypal’s secure payment server.
OR
2) If you would prefer to speak to one of our sales staff, simple phone 1300 65 33 85 between the hours of 11am – 6pm Australian Eastern Time (9am – 4pm Western Australian time) and we can take your order over the phone, using credit card, money order, cheque or direct deposit.
STEP 6: That’s it! Your new lights will be on their way!
We use Australia Post Platinum Express OR FedEx Priority Shipping for fast delivery in 2-5 days Australia wide (depending on your address & your kit is in-stock), and once your order has left we will email you the online tracking number so you can track your delivery over the Internet.
Please put down a physical address, as FedEx
cannot deliver to post office boxes.
HID lights are quite simple to install yourself, we have a DIY instruction set here:
Installation guide
Alternatively any good auto electrician or car stereo installation business can fit your lights for you. We have seen them installed for around $80 - $300 depending on the car, location etc.
