Can I upgrade my headlights to HID?

Can I upgrade the headlights/fog lights to LED/Xenon/HID on my 2012 Hyundai i20?

Technically, you are allowed to upgrade your i20 headlamps to Xenon/HID units. However there is a very specific set of restrictions and rules around doing so in the UK. We'd recommend reading up here: www.gov.uk/government/publications/aftermarket-hid...s

We're not certain on fog lights but would recommend sticking to Xenon-look halogen bulb upgrades for those.
