i finally did got the ebay projectors and added 6000k hids to those,and since my paint guy painted my stock fogs i went ahead and got the hella micro de fogs and added 6000k hids to those as well.halos and leds not connected yet,actually not sure if i will connect them.thanx to silver ultraz and tdawg for their help

headlights

foglights

both

 

Nice, I wish there was an easier way to put projectors on a LT1 car

 

big diff. i need to do this soon. must be waaay brighter than stock

 

Odd. I thought 6K was more yellow. Of course the white balance in the pic could be throwing me off.

 

It's not. 6K is pure white

 

Awesome, I have those projectors with 8000K waiting to go on and I already have 8000K HID fogs.

 

They look great with 6000K hids.

 

put an ls1 front end on

 

Very nice im just not sure I like those housings in the day time.

 

lets see the cut off...i hear that those projector headlamps arent the right projectors for HID. if the cutoff is nice then i might do those and get HIDs rather then building custom projector headlights.

 

Let me tell you that the cut off is not that great. But it beats blinding on coming traffic with HIDs in the factory housings. If you have the time build a set of custom projectors.

 

Looks great.

Sorry to hijack here but what's the difference between the Ebay HID's and the HID's that the sponsor LED Gauges sells?

 

i'm praying only price

 

i wanted them to stand out so thats why i got the chrome ones,plus they go with the grille and nose emblem i have

 

you can find REAL HIDs on ebay, but what i assume youre talking about is that they are just halogen bulbs with a tinted glass to copy HID colors. the output is nothing similar.

REAL HID required ballasts (basically amplifiers) for each bulb. the bulb itself is gas charged, not a filament bulb, so it does not emit any heat, but the gas burns at a very high kelvin (hence the 6000K).

if you want the real thing expect to pay anywhere north of $150.

 

Looks good bro, Happy I could be of assistance.

 

Yay for properly retrofitted HID's!

Looks great! Nice job

 

Looks great! Does oncomming traffic seem to flash you the highbeams a lot now? A friend has an evo, and he gets the high beams all the time since his hid's are so bright...

 

no,and mine r aimed pretty high,can anyone give me any advice on how high my cutoff should be,it was right under the license plate of an escalade the other night.is that high?

 

I have mine aimed at a cars bumper. I found this link in the lighting section that might help.
