HID for less?

[boxstermao]

ive just upgraded to litronics on my 99 C4, but am curious if i replace the high beams with a hid conversion kit ( equivalent only to 250dlrs here in manila) will i get a cel or the like? i have an impression that porsches are kinda sensitive to these electronic upgrades and wud appreciate ur thoughts. by the way, the kit comes complete with all hardware ang is a 30 minute job to do.

I doubt that the change will trigger any warning lights, and certainly not a check Engine light. However, I would think twice about replacing the high beams with a HID bulb. The HID bulbs typically need warm-up time to come on and don't take kindly to frequent on/off cycling. The new bi xenon systems use a swivel to leave one light source on and change the visual cut-off when the high beams are on. You might also have heat issues, although I'm not sure what temperatures the HID high beams would run.
