HIDs

trueblue02GT · August 29th, 2009, 09:14 PM

the kits from vvme i bought look intimidating. the poor directions don't help. lots of crap going on. is it easy? im getting my car back tonight

Lefty · August 29th, 2009, 10:05 PM

^Yep

It's easy. I found it easier to lay everything out. Just take your time and hide the wires

mrsinister2424 · August 30th, 2009, 12:03 AM

^ Yup, the only part of the hid wires you can see is if you look up under the front bumper at the ballasts... very hard to get under my car though unless you're about 5.

trueblue02GT · August 30th, 2009, 02:22 AM

wtf i have to take off the front bumper?!

PapaSmurf · August 30th, 2009, 03:00 AM

i hightly doubt you have to remove your front bumper

however as for the HIDs...its a very easy install to do and i have pics of mine that i didn't post in my earlier thread if needed...post pics of your kit and that will help us out...btw, is it a plug and play or a kit you have to wire in yourself...

HIDs and Exhaust Tips FTW...

Clever clever

trueblue02GT · August 30th, 2009, 12:37 PM

6er w/ a vengeance did lol. here's a crappy pic of the kit. i think this is the headlight bi-xenon kit lol.

WLJohnson05 · August 30th, 2009, 12:59 PM

its not too hard at all...if you still have problems let me know, ill go out and take pics of mine hooked up

trueblue02GT · August 30th, 2009, 08:41 PM

well nvm i got them in! DAMN they look sexy! i bent the ballast bracket and mounted the ballast under the two green bolts i used to ground the black wires. seems secure enough. im very happy!

Lefty · August 30th, 2009, 08:54 PM

Nice!

trueblue02GT · August 30th, 2009, 08:59 PM

once it gets a little darker i'll take phone pics and put em up! anyone know any special strategy to aiming lights well? im thinkin i'll just put my car in the middle of the street and get em however seems good lol.

Lefty · August 30th, 2009, 09:00 PM

You can try to aim them using the guide on American Muscle...but me, I still can't really get them aimed right...

Best bet is just to toy with it how you like it.

trueblue02GT · August 30th, 2009, 09:02 PM

lol i guess so. sucks for anyone who wants to get by my street tonight. haha. i'm so glad i got 6k, they look just the perfect amount of blue and white

Lefty · August 30th, 2009, 09:04 PM

Yeah, I got 5000k from hidguy.net.

They are 98.9% pure white and 1.1% blue. No yellow. Perfect for me.

trueblue02GT · August 30th, 2009, 09:12 PM

Lefty · August 30th, 2009, 09:52 PM

trueblue02GT · August 30th, 2009, 10:14 PM

no, well i got a new set from the accident cuz one cracked, but they're the same exact type, dark smoked from american muscle had em almost a year now.

Lefty · August 30th, 2009, 10:23 PM

Have you had any moisture issues with them?

trueblue02GT · August 30th, 2009, 10:46 PM
