Just to bring some life back to this old thread.
I have had the hid conversion in my Prado now for 12 months. Whilst the light it gives off is fantastic on two occasions I have had the globe pop out of their plastic holder. This has happened after traveling down corrugated roads. The omly way I knew they had popped out was when I turned the lights on the globe was touching the plasti globe housing and it melted it causing the inside of the headlight to smoke up.
I bought these on ebay and contacted the seller who told me I fitted them incorrectly. I was motor mechanic for 17 years and I fitted many a globe in my time so I think I know what I'm doing. He was just interested in selling me another set which I told him he could stick where the sun don't shine . Now I have 2 smoke stained headlights and no support from the seller. So I will be going back to the standard type.
Anyone else struck this as I see them for sale in lots of stores now
