Is there a sticky on HID or High Intensity Discharge for 2015 on?

[Burby]

Struggling to search and find a decent writeup on HID kits etc on the forum due to the "HID" falling under the minimum allowable search character amount. A sticky would be helpful as the stock LT and LS halogens are simply too weak. And there are a lot of budget HID kits out there that are liklely junk.

Also - I just want OEM HID color and lumens. So from what I can tell that is 4300K and???

Hello, i will give you my own opinion about getting the best hids because i have them in my car and i can tell you these guys have the best lights , they do not flicker, there is no error message either like other hids, these ones are plug and play there is no modification needed with these lights and another good thing (NO GLARE) no more glare like what other people have with cheap quality hids. I got mines from www.vanquishauto.com I will suggest anyway that is really looking to buy the best lights for their cars to contact them.



if you have 2015 GMC YUKON, here are the links for the ones you should buy.

Have you looked into led's? We just bought a 15 tahoe and I think I will order some led. Here is a descent webpage about them

They recommend HIDs for LOW BEAMS and LED for HIGH BEAMS & FOG LIGHTS.

not if you go with OEM type ballast and bulb...regardless of the ballast bulb type, the projectors are still not True HID projectors. They will appear as oem and be a HUGE upgrade, but they still won't be identical to oem just because they are HID.

I am running a quality ballast with Philips 85122 4300K (oem for many cars) bulbs in our SLT and it's about as close to oem as it gets without swapping out housings with denali version projectors.

By projectors do you mean the actual housings? And if so are the housings that much different from halogen to HID?

 

[ajs800]

correct. I don't know the actual detailed differences...different bowl shapes, cutoff, light pattern, etc. so yes the projector itself distribute the light differently. One is designed for a halogen bulb. Is it worth it to upgrade housings, definitely not, but there is a difference.

I am happy with my OEM 4300k Bulbs in the halogen projectors.

My 2015 LS had the halogen bulbs,not good.Tried LAD bulbs better but not really. Finally bought 35 watt ,5000k HID kit ,man what a difference.They have a very defined cutoff and light up the road way just like my old 2000 Tahoe LT. lots of light and no glare.Usable vision on a dark back road is excellent, there has not been one person to flash me or complain of glare or adjusted too high. They are set to factory height specs . and it is finally nice to drive at night in all weather.
