HID headlight globes are designed as replacement bulbs for existing HID systems using halogen-style bases such as H1, H3, H4, H7 and H11. These globes provide improved light output and beam clarity compared to standard halogen bulbs when used with compatible HID ballasts.
What Are HID Headlight Globes?
HID globes are xenon-based light sources used in HID lighting systems. Unlike halogen bulbs, they operate using a ballast to generate a high-intensity arc, producing a brighter and more efficient light output.
Choosing the Right HID Globe
Selecting the correct HID globe depends on your existing system and fitment type:
- Fitment Type: H1, H3, H4, H7 and H11 globes are designed for use with HID conversion systems
- Colour Temperature: Different Kelvin ratings affect light colour and visibility
- System Compatibility: Ensure compatibility with your existing HID ballast
Compatibility & Fitment
These HID globes are designed for vehicles that already have HID conversion kits installed using halogen-style fittings. They are not suitable for OEM D-series systems such as D1S or D3S. Always confirm your globe type before purchasing.

What colour temperature should I choose?
Lower Kelvin ratings provide a warmer light with better visibility, while higher ratings produce a whiter or bluer appearance.
