HID's?

Anyone know of a website where I can get black smoked halo headlights which includes the HID kit and has minimal amber? Wondering what an HID kit would look like with stock headlights if anyone has a picture please post. Thanks

Ebay? They have every light combo you could think of almost. And an hid in the stock housing is going to just look like you have your high beams on all the time, meaning excessive glare.

They will, but I can't tell you what size hid bulb to order due to those projectors not using the stock size, if I had to guess its h1 low and h3 high but it could be the other way around. However those hid's will put off enough heat to chip that black paint off the inside of that housing most likely.

If your gonna drop that much cash why don't you just save a little extra and do a proper retrofit with the mini h1's. Check out theretrofitsource.com

"Locate anywhere that the LED bumper light will look cool on your car"

OMG. Fail.

OP, what are you trying to go for? Ricer look or light output? I can tell you which one those lights will give you, and which ones it wont.

Oh the output is gonna be horrible, but the rice level will be off the charts haha. I think this requires your glare picture so he can get an idea of what they look like.

Meh, they wont have that much glare, but then again they won't be very clear optics, either

Chances are he'll lose whatever cutoff line those projectors will give him.

As soon as you put those in you're going to start another thread asking why you cant see your headlights at night. We get them every other week it seems
