The HID basics
I have read a few threads and still have some basic newbie HID questions.
I have a PNP kit now but im getting ready to do a retro.
What is a color mod and how is it done?
Can you use a non bi-xenon bulb in a bi-xenon lamp assy ?
If you remove the shield, is there still a sharp cutoff or is the shield what gives the cutoff?
Thx guys

Excellent thank you. So esentially the d2s bulb is a constant and the part that changes an assy to bi-xenon is the motorized deflector that allows hi and low beams in the same houseing right ?
Yea it's just a motor that moves the shield to allow more light thus creating the appearance of a highbeam. The aftermarket HID kits use a second bulb to achieve hi/lo beam HID.
