When I first saw the nonpop-up headlight kits I liked them, but they are over $1000 I think. Now, I am not so sure. Are everyone elses factort leadlights really dim? I think my brights are only slightly brighter than most dim lights on other cars, making it pretty hard to see at night.

Umm you would prolly choke on the money I spent for my hid headlight setup but I used OEM products for ballasts and bulbs.

Philips Gen III ballasts with philps 4300k bulbs.
Used hella 90mm projectors
had someone make me a custom heavy duty wiring harness.

I have Hella 90mm H9 projectors with a 4300K H9 HID kit (from www.ledgauges.com) and modified cut off on my 2001 Formula:


Sorry about the pic being a bit blurry. The camera is on the roof set to full auto. It appears to have focused on the roof and I didn't notice until I reviewed the pics on my pc.

You can find more info about it and other lighting options in the Lighting FAQ:

Here is DirtyBird222's thread on his setup:
https://ls1tech.com/forums/appearance-detailing/866146-appearance-update-new-headlights-calipers-painted.html
His setup also uses Hella 90mm projectors, but I think they are the H7 version instead of the H9 version that I have.
