Where can you get a H2 HID bulb, never seen them around
Yep, above 'h2' is wrong. THere is bugger all manufactures that make a H2 bulb in a HID bulb. I went chasing for weeks on end (chinese / japanese web sites. google.jp and google.ch etc, contacted Osram, philips etc) to find a H2 or a bi-pin bulb that could suit any of the Cibie range of lights that use the H2 or a Hella 1000 that also uses the H2. I gave up.

I never thought about it until after I brought my cibie turini's and seen the H2 bulb. I was going to stick hids in em but couldnt find any. The shape of the holder dosent really lend itself to making an adaptor to suit the common bulbs either

Closest thing would be to drill the entire housing out, and replace the entire bulb hodler with a H3 bulb.
