I have 8000k HID headlight bulbs & LED sidelights.
I was wondering what type of "mainbeam/flash" bulbs I should get to match the brightness of the headlights?
Plus, what fitment are they?
Any suggestions?

Take the HIDs off,as from next month an aftermarket HID kit means an automatic MOT fail
But saying that I'm not sure what the rules are regarding profesionally fitted HID kits(i.e with wash and self levelling)

You cant get a full HID kit for the 206 as Valeo will never make the headlamps needed, I asked about 3 years ago.

Not true. HID kits will not be an MOT failure, if you have self-levellers/washers then they must work otherwise as long as they are well adjusted/not scattering badly etc then they will NOT fail an MOT.

HOWEVER... They are still not legal, and if you get pulled by the police they may decide to give you a ticket for them.
