LOL calm down, it's ok, people have different opinions. Breathe. I'm no F1 racer but my driving skills aren't bad, but if you've ever driven down 290/21 in the dark of night, you know how dangerous it can be.
And the only animal that has encountered a car of mine was a deer, that ran into my car. I jumped out of the car and chased it into the woods for good measure.
100yds isn't that much for a rifle btw, now if I was claiming .5" groups at 100yds with a pistol or something....I was more suggesting that I'm not visually impaired

If you want HID, this is the way to do it: http://www.blackbirdlighting.com/
(same as what the OP uses from the sound of it)

actually, I have a camaro, and I have these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1998-...Q5fAccessories
I like those. Might just have to talk my buddy into buying them for his Z. Anyway, i'd contest the ticket and just explain why you have them, those are true projectors and a COMPLETE units made for HIDs which are as far as I have been able to research are totally legal.
Either way, I'd take a ticket over stock halogen lights, there is a reason manufacturers are moving away from halogen just as fast as they can...

I love HIDs, more so the 4-6K intensity over the purple/blue of the higher heat ranges now that I have gotten older, but the T/A has sealed beams. A T/A with projectors looks retarded, IMO. Different strokes for different folks...

look up the dot code for headlights, projectors are just as illegal as running hid in a halogen housing. the law was ment to protect consumers against car dealers putting non oem spec equipment on a vehicle

Verdad Gallardo And again I can't find anything in federal law prohibiting a full conversion (Housings with bulbs MEANT for projectors). In Texas ruling is left up to federal laws (FMVSS 108, but it's a huge document lol) , I can't find anything about a private installer not being allowed to install HIDs.
Even if their is some obscure law against full conversions, I'd still take the ticket over halogens, or if you are really scared about it, go with halogens in the projector housing.
But then again, I hardly think any of us here would choose to drive a stock car over modding. The law is pretty vague when it comes to full conversions, I still say fight it. It's not like you are some ricer honda with half *** conversions in a reflector housing.

Notice that they avoid saying that HID in HID housings would be an illegal retrofit onto a car that did not come with OEM HID.
