Note: This HID Kit is for the replacement of two headlamp bulbs. The kit contains two HID bulbs and two ballasts
What is an H7 Stealth HID Kit?
An H7 HID kit is simply a kit that allows you to upgrade your existing H7 halogen bulbs to Xenon HID (High Intensity Discharge) technology seen on many newer cars. The benefit of upgrading to HID is the huge amount of extra light you get compared to the yellow candle like light that a standard H7 halogen bulb will emit.
This will differ somewhat from car to car, however the 55W Stealth HID Kits will give approximately 400% more light on the road. This is a massive improvement which will transform your night time driving experience. Not only are these brighter than halogen bulbs, you are getting more light than you would get from an OEM factory fit system! Hazards, road markings, corners, signs and anything else you need to see will be far more visible, increasing road safety significantly.
What's so good about the H7 Stealth HID Kit?
This is a fair question as there are a large number of HID kits available on the market, especially on the "cheap and cheerful" marketplaces that we all know and love! However, despite first appearances, all HID kits are not built the same!
Here at HIDS4U, we are not just a reseller. We do extensive testing and product development on our HID conversion kits. We ensure only the best quality components are used to give you the performance you are expecting.
With our products you can expect the following:
Correct beam pattern due to perfectly aligned light source in our bulbs.
Consistent bright light due to the quality of the bulbs and ballasts in perfect combination.
No error messages on 99% of vehicles due to the advanced CANBus compatibility systems developed for our ballasts.
No radio interference due to the EMF suppression technology.
No damage to other vehicle components (like the wiper motor) due to surge protection technology.
Slim and stylish ballast to fit in even the tightest of spaces and to look good while it's there!
2 year warranty on all parts as we stand behind our product quality.
What colour H7 HID bulbs can I have?
We offer 3 different colour temperatures depending on your preference. The choice is largely between maximum light output and colour. Let's run through the options:
5000K - The most popular due to them being the brightest of the three. You get a much whiter light than a halogen bulb, but without the blue tint you see with higher K rated bulbs.
6000K - A close second in popularity, only slightly less bright than the 5000K bulbs, but these also come with the added blue tint for that stylish Xenon look.
Do I need Anti-Glare bulbs?
Firstly, this question only applies on your dipped (low) beam. It does not apply to the main (high) beam as you will not have those on when there are oncoming vehicles. However for your dipped beam, you need to identify whether you have projector or reflector headlights. This is easy to do. If you click the "What's this?" link next to the headlight unit type options above, you will get a handy guide to illustrate the difference. However a quick overview is as follows:
Projector - If you look into the front of your headlights and see what looks like a dome lens, and you cannot see the bulb at all, you will have projector headlights. Projector lenses produce a much more focused beam pattern and effectively have built in anti-glare properties. Therefore you can opt for the normal Projector H7 bulbs in the options above.
Reflector - If you look into the front of your headlight and you can see the bulb (it might be behind a small cap for aesthetic purposes), and you can see the reflectors behind it, you will have a reflector headlight. In this case, a standard HID bulb can produce excess glare that can be irritating for oncoming drivers. We have uniquely developed anti-glare bulbs for this very purpose that will maintain maximum light output for you as the driver, without producing glare for oncoming vehicles.
Do I need a mechanic to fit an HID Kit?
In a word, no! These kits are provided on a DIY plug and play basis. The H7 HID bulbs are a direct replacement for your existing H7 halogens and you then simply connect the bulb cables to the ballast using the plug and play connectors. Often our Stealth ballasts will fit inside the headlight unit, but in the case where you have little room within the unit, you can mount the ballasts in the engine bay. This will require you to drill a small hole in your dust cover to allow the bulb and ballast cables to connect.
Our instructions are written by ourselves in an easy to follow, step by step process and is in proper English. We are also on hand to assist with any queries or issues you have to ensure you are up and running with these as soon as possible.
Is a 55W HID Kit my only option?
The HIDS4U Stealth kits come in two different power ratings, these 55W kits and also a 35W version. The difference is simply the brightness. The H7 35W Stealth HID kits will give up to 300% more light compared to a halogen, whereas these 55W kits are rated at 400% brighter. Most vehicles will be fine with either so it's entirely up to you which one you go for. However some modern vehicles do not like the startup current required to power these 55W kits up. In these cases we recommend using a relay harness to bypass the core vehicle systems, or simply use a 35W kit instead.
Crystal Vision with Twenty20 Crystalite
You can have the best bulbs in the World in your headlights, but if your lenses are yellow and hazy with sun oxidisation your vision is going to be seriously affected. Luckily there's a very quick, simple and cheap solution with the Twenty20 Crystalite headlight restoration kit.
It's a simple 2 stage wipe system that will clean and remove the yellow haze in minutes. No drill pads, tapes, polishes or complicated processes. Your headlights will be returned to crystal clarity and protected with a new UV protection layer to ensure it lasts.

Advantages: Great for low beam
Disadvantages: Takes about 5 seconds to fully ignite to full power output, looks cool :)

High quality lighting with no dazzling others. White light that greatly improves quality of old style naff halogen reflector type lights. The anti dazzle reflector bulb works superbly.
Advantages: A lit up road that utilises the best out of a dipped headlight.
Disadvantages: Can't think of any.

For my 2007 Volvo C70. The difference is amazing compared to the terrible Volvo Halogens they replaced.
Fitting was easy and took less than an hour which included removing my projector assemblies and cleaning the lens and reflector cone.
Wish I'd done this sooner.
Advantages: I can now see at night on wet roads.
Disadvantages: Not a disadvantage as such, but the 5000K bulbs I received definitely have a yellow tinge across the whole light beam... not the pure white I was expecting. But brightness is great none the less.

Happy with the product. Only recently installed but so far so good!
Advantages: Better view when riding at night. Original bulb I could not see on the road when riding at night.
Disadvantages: Difficult to hide all the cabling in a super sports bike. Connecting the red and black cable to the original light connector doesn’t seem like a permanent fix to me, it would have been better with a socket to plug into as it’s not totally weathered.

Great product! Can be a little fiddly to install but certainly possible for most DIYers at home.
It would have been nice if the provided bulb holders were included in my original parcel as I had to unnecessarily cut the new bulbs wires and fit spade connectors before I learnt hids4u would send me the missing holders.
Advantages: Much brighter beam! Find myself not always needing to use full beam on dark roads as the dipped beam is often enough!
The supplied wiring, connectors and ballasts all seem of good quality.
Disadvantages: A little fiddly to fit but save on garage fees and give it a go yourself!

Received my order in good time. It was well packaged and in a good box of its own.
Have used different make of these kits but the stealth kits seems the best one yet. The steel base on the bulbs are a better job compared to the normal plastic base bulbs which were always a pain to get the correct beam pattern with. I did not need to readjust the bulbs once. Time well tell how long the last but so far so good.
Advantages: Very well packaged

Provide a bright, clean, white light. Very happy with the quality and clarity these provide.
Advantages: Much better vision on the road.
Disadvantages: Some cars, such as mk7 Fiesta ST will have shadows in the beam which can be seen on the road at night. Minor irritation due to placement of the return wire on the bulb

Good quality product. Arrived very promptly and well packaged. Easily installed to the vehicle and have completely changed my night time driving experience. I used to lose sight of my side of the road at night on unlit country roads, due to oncoming traffic with the newer OEM led units and OEM xenon's. This no longer occurs and makes the roads a lot safer for transporting my family during the winter months. More than happy with my purchase and I think the price of the kit is reflected in the quality. Only thing I might do is order a spare set of bulbs as I'm just one of those people who like to have some on standby just in case. 2yr warranty is also a great bonus.

Initially we were convinced to buy after an informative phone conversation with your knowledgeable lady.
Her explanations were borne out in the fitting and I can report our delight in the outcome.
Our car is a Bmw520d gt 2013 and needs the headlight units dismantled,this took us two hours including unlocking the bodywork around it. The rest of the job one hour including installation, checking and re-assembly, really straightforward..
The result is that I can now see the road ahead and my confidence regained. Shame on bmw for producing such poor quality and in my case a dangerous vehicle.

Purchased for Volvo C70 2009 (projector type)
The kit arrived on time well packaged and protected.
Fitted both lights kits in half an hour. once completed I checked the light pattern against a wall and found it to be straight
A must for any other Volvo owner who's car is fitted with the candles Volvo like to call headlights

Made a phone call to Hids4u a day before to make sure they the right ones for my car. Friendly advice and all the answers i needed.
One of the best companies i have bought for.

Arrived very quickly after online order.
I had telephoned prior to ordering and spoke with a very helpful lady who advised on which kit suited my needs and I am very pleased with the results......my previous H7 headlights were dire, this kit has made the most amazing improvement to the lights.
The only downside was the fiddly nature of the bulb installation with the long wire tails having to be threaded through the bulb holder but this is more a problem with the car (BMW X5 E70) than the Stealth kit as the headlight unit is so difficult to get to and has to be done by touch rather than sight!
It would be helpful if there was a fitting guide to specific vehicles but I appreciate with the amount of different models out there this is not an easy task.

I have a Peugeot 207 cc from 2009 and the headlights were so bad you could not tell when they were one. I bought this kit and fitted it last weekend. The improvement in the light quality and brightness is excellent.
The installation instructions are good and the hardest part in fitting is the limited access to the headlight bulbs and springs that keep the bulbs in place.

a fairly substantial piece of kit. with this version (5000K) it's clear to see how much whiter the colour of the light is.....as opposed to the more yellow halogen type bulbs. i will have to take my car to an MOT test station to have the heights adjusted/aligned as the bulbs don't share the original bulb fitments. instead they use a small bracket. The fitting instructions are comprehensive but it took me much longer than the 30 minutes suggested it would take to fit.
im pleased with my purchase.
