    I would be careful about the quality and suitability for the D3. Look at his feedback.
    Compare to HID4U they have actually been tested on the vehicle and are good quality although you may find you pay more.

    Steve, if it helps I'll be purchasing HID4U's kit when I come to do mine for the exact reason CaverD3 mentioned about the testing. Might be a bit pricier when all's said and done but as these vehicles are fairly electronically sensitive a good tested/specific solution is the way to go in my opinion. Some good discussion's over at disco4.co.uk on this and HID4U's solutions.

    The D3 runs a H7 lighting system so the one in the link (a H4 system) will not fit.

    Not Hi/Lo conversions - H7 kits are only single beam. Any H7 kit will fit but you only get one beam. There is not a lot of difference between 35w and 50w kits - (the bulbs are the same but have different ballasts). I would go 4300K as these are close to the colour of standard halogens and do not wash out the colour like 5000 and 6000K globes do.

    sounds good do you have an exact link for which system is the right one for a D3 from HID4U he has 372 different kit's there.

    I have a cheap $65 set and a $135 Canbus compatible set in my RRS - both were bought from ebay and came from Hong Kong, they work fine and have caused no issues in my car.

    Yep! go here: Xenon HID Headlight Upgrade Kits from HIDS 4U - H7, H4, H1

    Then select make, model etc.

    It will list them out.

    You can pop over to DISCO3.CO.UK - Index and contact Ian from HIDS4U and ask him anything you need for it.

    the 35W has a smaller ballast which fits in behind the light I believe best ask Ian.
