Help me pick some H.I.D's

Jsz281GT · December 31st, 2011, 09:39 PM

I have smoked head lights and Wagner trueviews and they are way to dim I have finally disided to go to hid's I have found some on DDM tuning are they any good? And 35w or 55w? And color what the hell they come in different colors? Lol I want hi/low beams too

Gerbig · December 31st, 2011, 09:43 PM

55W and 8,000K would be my choice. 55W put out more light than 35W.

Jsz281GT · December 31st, 2011, 09:48 PM

I was thinking I wanted 55,s but what about the color thing to change color you change the K rating. Like you 8000k what color are those?

supercrewzin01 · December 31st, 2011, 09:52 PM

The higher your go the farther you go from a white light.

5000/6000k = white light

8000k = blue light

10000k = purple

I would suggest the 5000/6000k kit.

im going to get a dual beam 6000k kit i have the same head lights with the sliver star ultras and they are dim

Jsz281GT · December 31st, 2011, 10:03 PM

O ok I just hate dim headlights and I have had my smoked headlights for 6 months I like the look of them but tired of the dim lights how would the 7000k be I don't want them so bright I get pulled over with my low beams on.

Get some projector lighs so you don't bind oncoming drivers

HID's in OEM housings are notorious for this issue and illegal to boot

Gerbig · December 31st, 2011, 10:06 PM

My VVME kit in my stock housings are dim even on brights.

Jsz281GT · December 31st, 2011, 10:06 PM

That's what I'm going to get to I still want the dual function of the hi and low beams.

Jazzer The Cat · December 31st, 2011, 10:09 PM

If you are hardcore, like The Kitty... pick up some projectors and do the bad-boy mods:

Projector HID mod

Foglight mod

Jazzer... and how he rolls

what headlights do u have?

Jsz281GT · December 31st, 2011, 10:20 PM

I like the projectors but I really like my smoked headlights they go good with my car it's the shadow gray metallic.

codycat91 · January 1st, 2012, 12:05 AM

Omfg I can't take these dumb threads anymore. Get true projectors or gtfo. Listen to everyone that has EXPERIENCE with dealing with real projectors and shitty hid bulbs in oem housings (including myself). I now have real projectors thanks to r3dfyre02. With a retrofit, you keep your smoked housings...

4300K is pure white light and in smoked housings I would suggest these...I have 6000K in my Audi with clear housing and they work well so get projectors and use 4300K bulbs and smoked lenses

codycat91 · January 1st, 2012, 02:20 AM

Don't know if he still does it, but if I remember correctly, it was about $300 and that's like 95% parts

thats some dough lol but its worth it cuz i think stock headlights look the best and these projectors that they sell dont even look good.

codycat91 · January 1st, 2012, 02:28 AM

Agreed. And mine are sweet! Search "r3dfyre02 retrofit codycat91" and you should find both his thread and mine
