oh so its an HID kit?? How is that holding up? why dont you like the 5000k?

its a hair too blue compared to the 4300ks in the headlights, so 4500k will match up better


the hid kit is from ddm, its holding up very well, super bright, in fact its completely bright enough to drive with only my fogs on

im thinking about adding another set of grille lights to the ones already in there so there would be a total of 4 hidden grille lights and convert all 4 to hid as well, because i just realized that you can get hid for h3 bulbs

12 high mod here i come!

haha i dont think ill be selling my kits, i only need to replace the bulb

i do want to find out if anyone has experience with the h3 bulbs in hid though, how bright are they?

cause right now the grille lights are bright enough to hurt my eyes and all but dont project light very well, just like the 9005 silverstars in my DRLs, they are very bright, really hurt my eyes but the light is scattered all over the place, but thats just the design of the DRLs anyway, so im not bothered by that

anyway how bright are h3 hids, anyone?

It really depends on your headlights. A 9005, 9003, h3, h1, 9006, 9007, 9008, etc. When were talking HID, are all THE SAME BULB, just a different base. So an H3 35W kit will be just as bright as a 9005 35W kit. It just depends on the housing. Also If the beam in your aux lights is not projecting light very well, THey are probably flood beam. On your next pair make sure to get the fog or spot beam paddern.

for the DRLs, i simply took an old pair of 9005 bulbs that i used to have in my headlights before i got the xenarcs, how would i go about getting fog beam 9005s?
