HID Headlight Conversion
Hey guys I'm looking into doing an HID headlight conversion with the non sealed headlights, H4 bulbs, and ballasts. Anybody else done this yet? Please let me know how it turned out for you, installation, and where you purchased the goods. Thanks in advance for any input.

It's worth it. And there is several write-ups on the forum here. Be sure to get glass lensed ones. Plastic while yellow ( or dull out) over time. And you have to re-buff them.

They are not the cheapo ones you see on ebay, they are an actual retrofit headlight ready for HIDs.

Whoa thats expensive. Ill stick with the 90/100 w Halogen w/ driving light mix. (ask if you want more info on a regular halogen upgrade to h4's)
Looks good and intense but....not for that price lol
The reason for the flash comment is probably due to the fact a lot of people just go judged off of how bright they look. Even well directed (or casings that have the cut off) lights get flashed now and again.
