installed some HID's on a buddys t/a
 

well after alot of thought and talking i decided to give it a shot.. the only problem is i can't STAND the look of the round housings on a T/A so stock housings it was..

by the time the kit was said and done there was only 2 wires to be cut.. everything else was plug and play.. relay and all.. hooked up to the battery post by the fuse box and a chassis ground..

anyways i'll let the pics do the talking.. the first pics are with my old ass 1.3 mp kodak..

what ya'll think..

I like the color but that's a lot of glare. your going to have to aim those way down to not shine them too badly in everyone's eyes.

Also, perfect example of higher K temp and lower light output in the pic with the 10000k and the 6000k.

I like the color though.

i want some bright ass lights!

badass looks good, i want HID's so badly!!

if you look at the pic against the wall theres not much glare at all.. the pics side by side were before when he still had them aim's way high to be able to see with the old stockers..

Looks good there.

You are really close to the wall... Thats why the glare doesnt seem as bad. The pic with your truck and the car is a good example. They look like high beams, and you are standing to take the pic. Squat down to where most peoples heads are while in a car and take the pic.

I guess if he aimed them down, maybe its not too bad. Unfortunetly, after you get done aiming them down to where they dont glare on other drivers, the light pattern and amount of light that goes down the road gets crappy. When I experimented with HIDs in regular housings, I had to have them aimed so low that it was hard to see.

however that was just my experience with them. He should check out some E-Code housings. Like real ones not ones that just say "euro" on them. They produce a cut off more than a regular housing. I have a set on my jeep and they are fantastic with halogens. Ide like to see how the HIDs look in them...I think others have done it before.

Who sells the kits?

that was 10ft from the wall which is what is standard to see the cutoff.and ledgauges.com is expensive.mike could put together a kit for cheaper.

Do you have any pics with the lights off? How hard was it to install. Prices?

as promised everything is hidden.if u cant read the caption it says that the wires you see are for my dual electric fans.the HID wiring is hidden completely.
