Default Can somebody help me on this ?

I made a search and I didn't find nothing about how to install HID's !!! Well everybody is talking about "yeah I installed it today and i am happy" but I wanna be happy soon too !!! So I wanna get has more information I can get on purchasing a HID kit so I could blast them soon. I am thinkin about getting those Philips 6000k HID or SuperVision 8000K HID kit. What I really wants to know is how you install everything and all !!!!!!!

well 8000k is no no, i will never get it. so blue and so dim. i have the 6000k and i love it. do a little search in this forum, a lot of info on how to change the kit.

however, it's very hard to find hid kits now anymore. they are all illegal to sell now, and the penalty is very severe

Yah...like Rominl suggested...go with 6000K.

I think we can all agree that instructions with most of these kits really SUCKS!!!!

There are a number of threads showing the install....just do a search on "HID retrofit" or "HID install".

Good luck.

Pete
