For $50 or so u could get lower K kits say 4300K or yellow. HID is way better than halogen IMO. 35W kits are great, if u can find a 50/55W kit would be better.


Its only people who don't wash their windows who complain about glare then high beam you in an attempt to blind you because their lazy grumpy people
No, HID bulbs aren't supposed to go in a reflector/projector made for halogen bulbs period. The light pattern will never be ideal, because the housing isn't made for an HID bulb.

Around here I flip my rearview mirror up a fair bit to cars with HID's in stock headlights. And I live in a very well lit city, we don't even need our headlights around here.

Well I see fantasticly at night, light goes further, is clearer and I don't get flashed or angry looks from people or even the police.

if u don't even need lights. why bother keeping them in the car?
