What year 240?

Which HID "conversion"? There's no drop in solution for 240's (at least that I know of).

Putting HID units that go into existing headlamps (in place of proper halogen bulbs) is simply *wrong*. Unfortunately, too many people don't understand this.

E-codes are a relatively simple and hugely effective way to upgrade your lighting. Build a relay harness to get maximum effect.

See Dan Stern's site for loads of good info.
