Default HID information

Do HID kits usually only offer it for bright lights (high beams) or are they always high & low beam? Or do you specifically have to ask for low & high beam.

Also, where would you suggest to get HID lights for my 1999 accord.

Thank you very much.

Both. All that matters is that you get the correct bulb size such as 9006.

The price shouldnt change for the color (temperature)

Also, the higher the temp, the less light output there is.

depends on what color you like. they all cost about 135 on ebay, and those are just as good as those bought off site. Id like to get 1000K HIDs i think it would look freakin sweet

1000k?! lol I think you mean 10,000k otherwise youll have headlights as yellow as the sun! hahaha

I want 6000k, they are white with a hint of blue, like the BMW's and Chryslers have. I just need to find out whther its legal or not and whether theyll fit in my projectors.

naw im talkin about 1000K from the charts ive seen it emits red. im sure no one sells them, and id never be able to turn them on. But it would look freakin killer when i was parked and had them on.

I have 8000K, its kind of Violet/Blue/White i love them, they get progressivly white the longer there on. But when they first turn on their more of the violet color then "warm up" to the blue/white color

Thanks alot for the information. I like these alot for my car:

But are they say they are generally aimed towards high beam. Would they look bad, or not work well in low beam? Also, i'm assuming these do not present any legal issues in the state of Florida? Thanks
