HID's anyone?

InSaYnE · January 26th, 2008, 03:07 AM

was wondering if anyones running a HID conversion? I saw a bixenon 6000k kit on stang mods for like 280 with free shipping and a kit with the hid fog lights for like 450. Is that a good deal? Also is it illegal to run a certain brightness? And if I dont have stock fog lights and I get the hid fog light kit what all will I need to do to install them? Like do I need to run a new switch or are they run off the headlight switch?

Ya

Check american muscle too they aren't half bad

Is that a good deal?
Also is it illegal to run a certain brightness?
I might be wrong but over 8k is illegal cause it loses its whiteness

And if I dont have stock fog lights and I get the hid fog light kit what all will I need to do to install them?
A wiring harness... you will need to find a way to power them appropriately

Like do I need to run a new switch or are they run off the headlight switch?
you have multiple ways of wiring it honestly

InSaYnE · January 26th, 2008, 05:26 AM

do gt's have a seperate switch for fog lights or are they run from the headkight switch? and has anyone seen a fog light harness kit?

itschristorres8 · January 26th, 2008, 10:23 AM

they have a switch for the fogs yes
you would get a harness or some wires with a fog light kit as well

GreenFaleen · January 26th, 2008, 11:41 AM

it is illegal to run HIDs in any car that did not come with them from factory since you do not have the right kind of reflector in your headlight

InSaYnE · January 26th, 2008, 02:34 PM

so a fog light kit would have the harness and id just have to hard wire it in to my headlight switch? and what kid of ticket would i be looking at if i got pulled over for running hid's and are there aftermarket headlights with the reflector that anyone knows about? at this point both the kits i have been looking at dont say anything about reflectors. also which temp is the blue white light 6000k or 8000k because the the kits i have looked at one says that 8000k is pure white and the other says that 4300k is pure white so i dunno.

ticket is expensive, and for a correct reflector you would need to find a headlight similar in shape and retrofit it to the car. there isn't really a pure white 8k is the whitest before it starts looking more blue

Avaric3 · January 26th, 2008, 04:57 PM

i honestly doubt you will ever get pulled over for having hid headlights on your car, i def wouldnt worry about it, its probly the same odds of a cop pullin you over than getting on his stomach to check your exhaust for cats

03stangcs · January 26th, 2008, 07:44 PM

I just got the projector hid kit 6000k and its white/blue. You really need the projector for the cutoff.

its a secondary offense... if you get pulled over and you have lights that don't have any since of white in it... they will write you up

that and I know it bigger NC cities (not sure about other states) they are getting to be a road hazard so inspection stations are shooting the head lights at a beam analyzer to make sure they have the right scatter

03stangcs · January 26th, 2008, 09:45 PM

GreenFaleen · January 26th, 2008, 09:58 PM
