HID Install on 01 Screw...Before and After Pics

As most know, I recently got a 35W, 6000K HID from XenonLink. I installed it on Friday and I am absolutely loving it! One of my favorite mods by far!!!!!

Looks great! I saw pretty much the same gains, even with them not adjusted correctly. I have them aimed a little low right now. I can't wait to get these fogs on as well.

Yeah, I really like the look with the heads and fogs. Im personally not doing my fogs, cause I very rarely even use them.

I purchased the Bi-Xenon Kit from XenonLink.com and paid $135 with free shipping. The Bi-Xenon is their most expensive kit, which is the ones the have a motor behind the bulb that moves the bulb to give you a true HID high beam. Other options are no high beam at all (least expensive) or a low beam HID with a halogen high beam (middle price)

My kit was 100% plug and play...just plug stuff in, ground, connect to battery...DONE! So far im extremely happy with them

I LOVE driving at night. 6000K HIDs are THe BEST head-turners out there. When going downtown I'll always get ricers revving up at me, other Chevy's with their "rebel no-cats" exhaust popping at me or other one-fiddy's me

Nothing says modded like HIDs...

Yeah, the pointless night time driving is most certainly a favorite past time of mine. I went to the gas station for a soda two nights ago. My wife was like "honey theres soda in the garage" Well, I want a fountain soda! LATER.

As far as my favorite mod...I kind of think of wheels and tires as mandatory. So, for other appearance mods. HID's is hands down the best thing you can do. Looks Bad Ace to others and makes guys with the same truck as you wonder why the heck they dont have it. And inside the vehicle is just outstanding. Something i really love is how friggen bright all the highway and street signs are when HID's shine on them!

The 6000K are PERFECT. As those who have them can agree, they seems to photograph much more blue than they are in person. They show exactly how I was hoping they would. They are super bright white with just a hint of blue. I only really notice the blue when i actually look at the lights themselves. Down the road looks pure white to me.

And the Bi-Xenon. I almost didnt get them cause i dont use my brights that often, but im glad i did. They are SWEET!!!!

To anyone thinking about HID's...DO IT!!! You will absolutely love them!
