HID kit


i think im going to get the HID kit from americanmuscle.com. it seems that people have nothing but good things to say about this upgrade. what do you guys think?

i never really noticed how bad my lights were until i was driving on an unlit road last night. it wasnt the first time ive driven somewhere w/o street lights but it was the first time i noticed how crappy my car lights up the road when there is no other light around...

HID Dual Beam Headlight Conversion Kit for 94-04 Mustang (9007 Bulb)

Dual beam design utilizes electromagnetic motors to re-aim the bulb up or down for high and low beam

no you have highs and lows

Yes you lose the high beams but they really are not needed.

I think the place below has some specials going on for heads and fogs and they also have the dual kits

Click the link I posted above they have kits for both the headlights and the foglights and that is who I will most likely purchase from.

Also if you join Mustangforums and then go to the Stangmods forum and request a discount code you can get and even lower price by like 5-10% I think.

like they said you need a different bulb but that guy as some for your car in his store, you just have to tell him the bulb size, and that saves you over $100 for the exact same thing as whats on AM and stangmods. after christmas im buying that kit i posted!

very true. however with the added brightness of the HID's i find it unnessasary to have high beams and not worth the extra $100+ but thats just my opinion.

well seeing as i do a lot of city driving... i find it necessary to have low beams so you aren't blinding everyone... and then once you do aim your lights so they aren't blinding, if i do go on the high ways at night i will need high beams so i can see... just trying to say where im coming from

no i totally get where your coming from, all i was saying is i find it a much better deal for my situation, but dual beams would be nice, i just cant drop that kind of money right now cause i got to save for my wheels and tires, so i get the same bassic think for less, but yes the dual beams are better and more functional i agree completely!
