Not as I read it.

Your car won't comply with ADRs requiring HIDs to be self-levelling and self-cleaning - only reason those features ever made it into the Corolla Levin.

Just on that, i have not once been flashed cus of my HID's in the jim....but the old man was getting flashed by every second car in his lux with standard globe's cus his head lights were out of adjustment....they some how pointed upwards over time from vibrations etc....so when i put my HID's in i un-did all the bolt's/screws and aimed the head lights down as far as i could....

HID's are illegal in zooks as they did not come with them. The rozzers had a sting a few months back and booked everyone who had HID's.
If you do fit them, make sure you adjust your headlights. Every single H4 kit I have installed has needed the reflectors adjusted downward due to the slightly different position of the light emitting part of globe.

Xauszookers membership..

nothin worse than the car behind you having cheapo illegal HID's blinding the bejesus outta you..

Do the wiring upgrade, get some NEW sealed lens' and be done with it.. Leave the HID. $$ better spent elseware..

lol you just dont get flashed cos theyre so blinded by your lights they cant find their flashy whatsit... your lights are wayyyyy too bright. Driving infront of you at night is very uncomfortable, even with the rear view mirror dipped the side mirrors still catch a hell of a glare =)

and if a globe blows it usually fucks the ballast too so can get expensive.. i have a set here but decided against it coz they are a waste of time and not worth getting caught..

100W HID driving lights are like a pair of Suns on the bullbar. Definitely on my wish list. Better more useful option.

I'm looking at retrofitting some Morimoto Mini H1 Bi xenon projectors to the 7" round semi sealed beams. Let me know if you want to see some results later down the track.

Going to this to the semi sealed beams http://www.hidplanet.com/forums/showthread.php?36589-03-Jeep-TJ-FX-R-Retro&s=9f8fc68d4b4f571e7bfd2dc19b95f602
