HID's installed - Thanks Leo! Pics Incl.

Postby WhiteGTB » Sun Sep 02, 2007 8:18 pm

Just some pics of my install of the HID ballast. Absolutely brilliant!!!!

Now I have HID's I won't ever drive without them again, the difference is night and day... and I don't even need to turn on the foggies no more.

Ballast (little silver/black box with the red cables coming out of it)

Thanks Leo!

Fitting time under an hour :) Just need the tools.

Nice and neat install! I like the brackets - did that come with the kit or was that fabricated?

Yeah I thought that was pretty handy too! The bracket was included in the kit.

BTW I got the 6000's they are nice and bright :)

I thought high beam HIDs were a problem, because they don't like being turned off and on quickly...

OEM projectors do a pretty good job of cutoff. Slight flare on the left, but that is normal with all headlights - reason to reduce glare to oncoming drives on the right, whilst giving peripheral vision on the left.
