I've had a HID conversion in projector bodies for years and not had a MOT problem yet
4.1.4 Headlamps - Compliance with requirements - Changed sentence from 'Existing halogen headlamp units should not be converted to be used with HID bulbs. If such a conversion has been done, you must fail the headlamp.' to 'Existing halogen headlamp units should not be converted to be used with high intensity discharge (HID) or light emitting diode (LED) bulbs. If such a conversion has been done, you must fail the headlamp.'
I'm sure this update will please some and irritate others
ordered someyou can NOT put LED headlights from another car into yours because you have not got the washer jets and other parts , so its classed as illegal and will fail MOT
i enquired about doing that on here a long time ago, and everyone said you are not allowed
only the Titanium X has HIDs

They look good and have a decent price. If they work out, it's far cheaper than trying to modify the car for sure.wow

My last three cars have had factory LED headlights but not had washer jets only self levelling.
Same i don't get it either... Looks rubbish if you ask me. Adds no aesthetic value and lessens the effectiveness of the headlights.I don't get the whole tinted lights thing.
Pay money.... to make the lights less effective?
I got some LED headlight bulbs (Novsight) earlier in the year.
I wanted some brighter bulbs, they were cheap as chips and I was curious! So I took a punt half expecting them to be rubbish (cheap Chinese LEDs haven't served me well in the past) and immediately replaced with a decent Halogen.
But they've been decent, I know they won't pass an MOT, but they're a bit brighter, the beam patterns good (one of the first things i checked), no ones flashed me!
thats what i tried (someone recommended them on here) and i was getting flashed all the time, every driver that past, no good
i think theres a mix up between leds and zenon headlights the last 2 mondeos had zenons and factory washers for headlights , agreed it tends to be only titanium x that have them but have seen some titaniums special orderMy last three cars have had factory LED headlights but not had washer jets only self levelling.
Absolutely fine.
Absolutely fine.
Installed within 5 mins.
Much brighter than before. Not as bright as my Mazdas Xenons.. but not too far off.
Here's hoping they last.
