As many of you will be aware, I love to mod my FZ6, but I like to do it as cheaply as possible. I've been mostly lucky so far. I was one of the first to buy the cheap adjustable levers and they've lasted me years with no issues. I bought Scorpion end-cans as they were the cheapest and they've been great. I did buy some really cheap and horrible risers and they sucked, but I replaced them with some middle-range risers and was much happier. I bought a cheap LED integrated tail-light and it's lasted me really well for ages.
So, I want to improve my lighting. I'm currently using Philips X-Treme power bulbs with the BD43 mod and they are good, but my eyesight isn't great even with glasses and I'd like an upgrade. The wife won't let me spend a lot of money on the bike - especially as it's getting a bit old now so I'm looking for cheap HID bulbs. I know projectors are best, but I ride my bike to work every day and don't want to risk putting the headlights in the oven!
I know that most of you will recommend I buy £100+ HID projectors, but please listen when I say I'm not willing/allowed to spend that much!
I've found amazing deals on AliExpress (I'm sure some of you will recommend against using that site as well, but I've bought loads of things from it and had no issues as long as I use reputable sellers, so please no advice against that either).
I've found three decent looking dual H4 Bi-Xenon bulb sets here, here and here. They all are pretty similar, but if anyone has any advice or similarly priced alternatives I would be glad to hear any advice you have to give.
