Thumbs up New TypeII HID Kit Installed Today =)

Well, I finally got tired of the "I can't afford real HID so I got cheap ones" look. I have had the PIAA Super White bulbs with some aftermarket bulb housings for about a year now. They really look good in my opinion, and they are nowhere near as expensive as these HID lights are, but they took 100W out of my car while these new HID's only pull 35W and are brighter! I finally found a deal that I couldn't pass on, and jumped on it.

It is an H4 6000K Type II HID Conversion Kit, and comes complete with everything to convert to HID lighting if you already have the housings. They are INSANELY bright in the daytime, and I am dying to see them tonight. I still have to adjust them to the road as far as height goes, but they are pretty close already. I did a write-up of the install on my site, and will have some more nighttime pics when it gets dark

The writeup on fc3s.org was great!

And the difference in light output was incredible!

Now the next step would be to combine the Knightsports sleek light dual beam kit with a HID lighting kit for very cool set of headlights.

Although, I could see spending more for that set-up then some did for their entire car!! Me included..


Regards,
Shawn
