HID upgrade

Postby SleeperSolara » Thu Jun 02, 2005 12:07 pm

I've already searched here for HID upgrades.
But which company has the best HIDs??
Thanks.

Found a good site: http://www.xenonking.com/
Are their prices resonable??
What temps do you guys recommend??
I was thinkin' 6k, 8k, or 10k, or even 12k.
Which one the best temp??

jump on to http://www.hidplanet.com/forums/ to learn! It all depends (perception) as to what is best HID upgrade; retrofit with s2000 projectors would be my personal fav, but it would be expensive and if you do a DIY the aiming it correctly on the wall and jbweld would be your biggest challenges! You can pay someone (with even more cost), or you can go the plug+play (hid kits) which most people do here. Get all the quotes and them PM krazyazsn here...i think he's got deals from what i've seen in the past!

You are correct in suggesting not to get anything above 6k. 4100k would be the brighest, anything above that actually emits less light.
