Looks great and we have had some customers do that. I will take a look to see if I have any pictures.

Guys have put HIDs in their Hellas before but it also depends on the light housing. For instance, my Hellas cannot accept HID bulbs due to the internal structure of the light housing.

Ive read that some of the HID housings are indeed quite deep.
That would make it pretty tricky - as Hella 500's are pretty shallow (the HID bulb housing can actually encroach on the Hell's lens).

Did you get them aimed where you want them? I had to trim a little bit of plastic off the bottom of the light housing to get them aimed down enough.
