is it really that simple? just change the bulb??

RE: Question about HID
 

those look like a nice pair of xenons but theyre not real HID conversion kits

hid conversions kits come with two HID Xenon Plasma bulbs (or watever theyre called) two ballasts to run the bulbs and wires to connect everything. its not quite as easy as replacing a bulb but almost basically i thought the hardest part was lookin for a place to mount the ballasts and mounting them. i hung them on existing screws i jsut tightened it enough so it wouldnt swing around or anything. i should have mounted it better but it works and looks pretty sturdy to me. but yea basically switch your stock bulbs with the HID bulbs mount the ballasts and plug everything up. HID bulbs plug into the ballast and the ballasts plugs into a stock harness. i think i should cover the loose harness but i think it should be fine.

however if you dont wanna spend 100-300 on an HID conversion kit those bulbs are a lil better than stock theyre not as yellow and a bit brighter. cheaper imitation brands might burn out faster than sylvania or PIAA though. the color may look the same but the light output is much better with real HIDs

10000k on my high beams are crazy! man i can see literally for miles, i have had people stop in the middle of the road because they cant see, they wait for me to pass and then they proceed. man its so cool. not to mention on the highway thyre awesome. have you seen my picture? oh i als put green hids in and they ook sick, suprisingly i didnt get pulled over for having them, had them in there for a week but just changed them back to 10000k. ill post pics soon.

RE: Question about HID
 

ok, so if i want to do HID with my stock headlights, can i just replace the lo-beams with HID since i leave them on all the time anyways. i like the really bright lights i see on the high-end cars these days and i want those bright lights! lol. so whats a good temperature to go with. i really like 10000k but that may be a bit much for a lo-beam. so whats a good compromise between 10000k and something that i'll still get flashed by others for thinking i have my brights on?

RE: Question about HID
 

i have bad eyes and i get blinded when cars passing have those lights, i cant stand it. but what are nice looking ones that are street legal and still have a very nice look to them

Is it true you just plug and play? That simple? I thought HIDs burn out the OEM wires and what not. Hence the expensive HID conversion kits....

RE: Question about HID
 

well the HID conversion kits are pretty much plug and play for the most part besides mounting the ballasts. the cheap "HID" bulbs on ebay arent real HIDs theyre just halogen bulbs with a bit of xenon gas to make it a bit brighter. and since HIDs only take 35W instead of 55W or 100W some "HID" bulbs use they shouldnt burn the oem wires. i believe its 35W in total but stocks lights are 55W each bulb

BTW 03Sleeper what bulbs are you running in that picture?

RE: Question about HID
 

9006 is low beam, 9005 is high beam. 9006 is whiter than 9005.
