was going to put in hid lites 6000k xenon someone told me i dont need relay as it will run off original plug also any suggestions where to get some good but cheap one?i live in canada

 

Going for the blinding effect for oncoming traffic? You need the relay if you want high and low beams, no relay = no high beams. And cheap? Check ebay you can pick them up all day long for like 30 bucks for the chinese low quality ones. If you want good check out doing a retrofit. Good and cheap don't go together.

 

ouch not cheap but...

 

They'res really no in the middle, they'res cheap like ~$30 dollar range and then they'res good like ~$150 range plus depending on good you want. Cheap is good if you want it to be bright like you have high beams on all the time, don't mind other driver's flashing you, and don't mind the like 7 second warm up time. Good would be a retrofit, which allows you to actually be able to properly aim them, no noticeable warm up time, sharp cut off line, and still classifying as legal head lights. Technically the drop in hid kits classify as off-road use only because of the glare they put out. Look over in the lighting forum on here at some people's retrofit output shots, it's amazing to say the least the difference between a retrofit and stock.

The only in the middle I can think of would be picking up a set of depo projector heads off ebay and putting hid's into them, people have mixed results when doing that though and for the cost you could almost do a proper retrofit plus a few hours of work on your end putting it all together. Hope this helps man

 

you really do not need HIDs. A $30 kit will do nothing but cause troubles. stick to halogens.

 

I ended up getting a $30 from a seller on ebay. It's actually the same brand that I had bought for my old BMW & paid $250 for about 4 years ago. I ended to changing my headlights & haven't had any problems with mine. Have them in my low beams & fogs.

 

Junk......hope you have fun making squirrels mad with all that glare.....

 

No, seriously, maybe it's the headlights that made the difference, but I have yet to have someone flash me with their high beams after I adjusted them correctly. I even drove behind my wife one night & she said they did not blind her. She said that she didn't even feel like she had to flip up her rear view mirror.

 

If you like it, you like it. Nobody can force anyone to change their mods. I ran PnP HIDs in my stock headlights for three years until I got tired enough (and mature enough) to realize they were crap. They caused glare, but the only way to combat that is to aim them down, but then they were so low you only saw about 20 feet in front of you. Living in the middle of lonely, dark stretches of roads made the problem of no high beams make me go back to some Philips halogens. The "cool color" wasn't worth the risk of colliding with a deer at night.

 

i totally agree with the beginning of this statement, but disagree with the later. it has nothing to do with maturity. im 37. i didnt go with the "cool blue" color that a lot of the ricers around here are doing i went with a 5000k white colored bulb. i didnt have to aim mine down very low & they are very beneficial for night driving. as i have stated, i have yet to have anyone flash me for my lights being too bright. again, maybe it has to do with my headlights (since i have a high & a low beam bulb now), but i have not run into any problem with these lights.

 

I didn't mean any offense with the last statement, I said that because I first got HIDs when I was 15. About the time I turned 18 I swapped back to halogens and really started to sit down and learn about lights. I'm glad you like them, I'm just not one.
