Legally you cant put HID kits in without Washers and Auto levelers as per ADR requirements

55w would be my choice.. I'm not sure the 35v would get you to 4300 lumen.

Not sure if this is still the case or not.

Also I had the wifes Aurion upgraded to HIDs from Manell Motors in Thornleigh.

i do HID upgrades/conversions on a regular basis at work.

as Slash has said they are illegal unless you have washer jets installed as well.

however, they are only illegal for road use, offroad use they are legal.

note that under specifications it states: Recommended for off-road use

and under features: Not ADR approved for road use.
