What is the life on these bulbs like and are they difficult to install?

 

super easy to install plug ang play however i no longer have high beams but you really wont need them they are amazingly bright yet dont seem to blind everyone else. i bought mine on ebay for 109 with shipping. not sure if 04 and up you same bulbs as my 02. they do make your fog lights look yellow and dull

 

4300k is true 3200 lumens output which is noon time daylight and bright as hell but no color tint like 5 and 6k blue and so on

 

My buddy has an audi and his are bright white and you can see a slight hint of blue around the edges of the light. Is that the 4300K or the 8000K?

 

ttt

 

UUU?

 

there was one guy with a evo and he said that he has HIDS that change color from diff temps he got them in JAPAN and payed about 1,500 for them

 

authentic HID bulbs go through was is known as a color shift about 100-500 hours of burn time. Though the color is barely noticable to the untrained eye. Usually is a same K shift, 4100k ->4320k. Any other color or temps, forget it, you'll go blind when it rains/snow or other weather condition.

 

its super hot over here so 6 k and 8k would be perfect lol put ya u would probably blind other people

 

Not the best of pics but you get the idea heads look like halogen from these pics but they are 4300k and fogs are 4300k too

 

yea true....they look like silverstars...but probably a lot brighter from the drivers seat right?

 

Yes very true they are bright but the best part is that they are true HID'S but i have them aimed almost perfect that i never not once got a high beam flashed at me and there is almost no glare but i wanted a bright light to light up the road not a cool color to impress my friends and i have the best of both worlds yeah for me and install was kinda tricky since i made my own harnesses but no flicker and always work when on

 

u have highs and lows?

 

i got my 8000k for $150 and it was a mission to get them on because my kit came with two extra plugs. so i spent 2 hours tryin to figure out where they went and finally asked someone and they said they were for testing the bulbs.

 

The XENARC HID is by far the best kit, but they are no longer available, some times you will see some on Ebay, but only sometimes.......I've had mine for over 4 years and have not had the pleasure of replacing the D1R bulb. The temp for these is 4100k is still has that white/blue/purpule hint on them. The headlight was desingned to have a sharp cut off line and not blind on coming traffic, it lights up the road very well. I paid $900 when I got them, never regret it. The XENARC HID Headlight took like 5 mins to install. As far as kits I bought another kit for my dad's crown vic on superhids.com and this kits are awesome as well the bulbs are super durable (my dad has accidentally hit the factory alarm and the bulbs go on and off, supposedly they are not desingend to perform after an event like this but they still work) The kits are super easy to install took me like 30 min. The crown vic's temp is 5300K is very bright and very purple when it rains or is dim here in the Northwest. No matter what kit you get you still will impress your buds or any car nut, especally when you turn them on!
