    Exclamation How To: H.I.D Kits & H4 Conversion

    Hi,

    Here to talk about H.I.D (also known as High Intensity Discharge). So what Kind of H.I.D's do you want is the question? Well it all Depends on what color scheme you want. Here i will list: Color Temps, Watts, Bulb size, Brands, Adjustment and Housings, This will give you an idea what you should be looking for in the market.

    COLOR TEMP:

    Ok, let start off with Color Temps:
    Temp Color
    3000k (Yellow)
    4300k (Yellowish white)
    5000k (Pure White)
    6000k (Bright white)
    8000k (IceBerg Blue)
    10,000k (Blueish/green)
    12,000k (Blueish/purple)

    You have a Selection on any color you want. If you want visibilty i would choose from 4300k-6000k for the best lighting. Ok thats enough on this.

    WATTS:

    Next up is Wattage,
    Ok you ask yourself which one is better? The 35w or 55w? 55w is a lot brighter than the 35w. Remember the more watts the brighter its is. If you plan on getting the 55w i recommend adding a relay to protect your electrical harness.(I highly recommend you take it to a Professional for the installation)

    Ok Bulb Size nothing much to say here but H4 Bulb LOL

    BRANDS:

    Alright Brands :O
    Im not gonna tell you which brand to get as it your car and choice what you get for it. We got Xenon, Bi-Xenon which seem like good brands. Please note: If you buy a cheap Brand Expect what you pay for! Please ignore Ebay deals with projector headlamps!!! i will tell you why in a the housing section. Buy your HID KITS Bulbs From a Professional place with good feed back!

    HOUSINGS:
    Are you looking for a great housing for the best light output? Ok good, We have HELLA OR AUTOPAL H4 Conversion Headlamps. This head lamps will give great light pattern and visibility. If plan on using HID kits i would recommend HELLA For the best lighting. Do not buy those Cheap Projector housings on ebay as they will leak and give you a very crappy light output.You can find the autopals on ebay or search on google.

    Adjustment:
    We hate being blinded by other drivings so please Adjust them. Dont want the police pulling you over or blinding others.

    Low beam or highbeam
    I strongly suggest low beams for this car

    What you should you look out for?
    Look for the reflector on you HID Bulb it should be big and not small. Avoid bulbs with tiny bulb on the side.
    35w

    Autopals Careful when buying they have different types of headlights! Look at them carefully!

    Hella: Same goes for these as well

    H4 bulbs: Any H4 bulb will work just be careful of the wattage you put!

    Well thats it for the HID KIT or H4 Conversion
