New headlights for my car.
I just installed a HID kit on my car
H4 Dual hi/low beam. 6500K.
The hi/low function is rather interesting. It uses an electromagnetic slider to create a hi / low beam effect. Pretty cool.
The installation took 1.5h since I was taking my sweet time.
Here is a teaser pic. Camera ran out of batteries. I'll take some later on.

The high/low effect that you are talking about, is present in todays cars. I have it on my maxima. Rather curious on what kit comes with this???

I got the kit for an undisclosed price because of my hookup =)
However, if anyone is interested, pm me and I can give you my contact and he'll hook you up.

As per my source, price will be around $500

Just chilling...



Low beams


High beams

Hmm, well I took the vid but it's too big to be attached.
Do you want to leave your email and I will send it to you??

Or maybe someone can host it??
