35w Hid Kit

[Danj85]

Hi guys I've searched he net for an answer but struggling to find any information. I've seen loads of posts regarding 50w aftermarket hid kits blowing wiper motors etc. My question is has anyone fitted a 35w kit without a problem? I bought a kit from euro car parts and it states it's 35w

I think the wattage is pretty much irrelevant in this situation, the problem centres around EMF from the high tension leads that serve the bulb.

I have installed a 55w canbus kit in my wife's car and have screened the high tension cables with steel braided sleeving and aluminium wrap, followed by poly overbraiding ,so far so good...

To be honest I bought them blind so really don't know if it'd worth the risk. They are made by ultra and are the 35w 8000k version

I had a 35w 6000k on my car, lasted me probably a good 4 days and then it blew the motor.
Now I got myself a pair of Philips Blue Vision Ultra and they're pretty nice, gives a nice white light
