Default Looking for XF with HID's...

I have done the search, and found the kits that people are using, but not many pics of the car after the install... where are people mounting the ballast? I have had HID"s in my previous 2 cars, and basically i hate driving with out them, driving by halogen is like driving by candle light.

Please, can people post pics of the cut-off on a wall... and how the projectors display the light.

if you check my photo gallery, i have some great pics of the low beam hid mounting areas.





there are some factory mounting screws, unused that are perfect for mounting to in the engine compartment. the fog lights have plenty of room for 2 sided tape mounting in the fog light access area.

Custom work on the picture above.

As nascarhq has posted, those are about the places I have my ballasts, the igniters are smaller and can be placed anywhere.

Does anyone have pics of the HID's lighting output? How the light scatters on the ground? The cut off line when projected on a wall?

he are some pics of the crossfire hids (8,000k)... along side of my 330i with factory xenons/hids... so you can see the color difference.
