How do you install the RAYZO HID lights? Where can I get them? Do they last long? I have heard that some of those do not last long or are very cheap. Any feedback?

I got the polarg M6's and they look real good on the GS400 and they only cost 7 bucks each there blue lights so they give u that HID look and when u have just the parking lights on it looks awsome

Question Install?

Biggie, or anyone. What is the install procedure for the inner park light install? Pretty simple and straight forward? Some of you may remember the adventure I had with my 2001 tail lens install! :eek:

I just ordered my Polarg M6. I tried 2 styles of Piaa wedge bulbs and they suck. One was too dark, the other had an ugly tint ofl ight green. Basically, the Piaas just dont match the HID's. When i get my Polargs, I will try to get a pic on here. From what everyone else says about them on here, they should look awesome.
By the way, it was less than $20 with shipping

Where can I get the Polarg M6s? Are they hard to install? Do they last long?

IMPORTANT:

WIll these POLARG M6 actually look blue when only the DRLs are on? I have Raybrigs now and they look yellow when only DRLs are on. I want my DRLs to be blue or white or whatever.

Hey,

How are you guys installing these things?? Are you taking out the high beams and sticking your fingers through that little hole to access them? Or is there an easy way? I'm stumped...

Also, those Polarg M-6's you guys are usuing are 18w as compared to 5w of the normal 168/194 type bulbs. Is there any chance of melting of wires or housings cuz its much hotter? I can see why it'd be much brighter. Those M-6's are the "big top small wedge base" type bulbs. Just curious...would like to change to those as well but slightly worried.

We have 2 members (mG and misterK) on this board used Polarg m6 to replace the 5w wedge bulbs. They've been doing that for almost 2 years and had no problem at all.
