Any1 got experience with NSW/AUS laws around Xenons and AE (DRLs) brightness?

Hey guys,
Picked up a pair of Phillips X-tremevisions D1S Xenons (3200 lumens and 4800k) and now trying to find some updated AE's to match
https://www.1addicts.com/forums/show...7#post30927357

Is there a max lumens or kelvin temperature for a bulb to be deemed "roadworthy" ?
Would it be the same for both the D1S (Xenons) and the H8 (AE/DRLs) ?

Thanks for your help boys!!

So I finally did it... the darn air filter box was in the way on the passenger side... it was either that or the entire headlight unit needed to come off. (limited tools

)
1x Xenon is still borked, might need to give the ballast a change over the next couple of weeks

Next on the list:

Blacked kidney grille (dual slat)
Ballast change (One Xenon still borked)
LED fogs
LED interior lights updated
LED dynamic side marker
Full splitter kit (FlowDesigns Australia)
*** DONE CF spoiler
CF diffuser (M-Tech style with 3fins)
Exhaust tone update, muffler delete
Some tuning, Stage1
