    hey there guys,

    im dumbing myself down asking this quick question concerning hid(xenon) kits you can buy that are plug and play.:D :p :D

    Question: Can someone please tell me that a h3 bulb will fit into a h3c housing and plug into the bulb and work without modifications, as ive searched and asked everywhere and i get mixed responses, saying no h3c bulbs available for hid kits etc etc, and you cant use hid's for the z.

    Insight would be great.

    If you had said hello at Cowra, you could have had a look at my HID's. Only difference between H3 and H3c globes is the pin layout, and as this has no bearing on HID Kits, it's of no importance.:zlove:

    lol i was talking to your wife, why wernt you protecting her :p

    so to confirm, do the lights sit tight and firmly and dont wobble even though they dont sit in the same postion as h3c's?

    The Low beam HID's DO fit in the same way as ordinary globes(with the spring clip) however the Hi beam ones need to have a rubber grommet, or similar, pushed in behind the globe to keep it firmly in place.

    P.S. One look at you and I knew my wife didn't need additional protection(on the other hand, you may have). :p:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::zlove:

    I found mine could be put in several ways. Some positions were a bit wobbly, so make sure you line them up properly and make sure they sit tight.
