My apologies if there is already a thread like this, but I am looking into buying two HID kits for high and lows. I wanted to get those super violet lights, though in California, I ask if they are legal for the street. I have seen newer cars with them, but that doesn't always mean it is ok. Also, I have noticed everyone mentioning the super white lights to see better, which I can understand, but are these violet or super violet lights really going to hurt vision that bad? Because the people that have those lights have some very powerful beams and even alone, much better than my stock headlights. So I ask any of you who have them, or know for certain if in California they are legal, and if they really impair vision that badly. Someone recommended 4300K for lows on the street and 9004 for highs (at least I think it was 9004, something with a 4 in it).

here is a better pic of hids in jdm projectors
of member tangcla or sumthin like that anyway, if u see that small bit of light that is up high.. it is unavoidable on our cars due to the design of the bumper and how resessed the lowbeam is in the circle area www.customlightz.com has done a couple of 6gc retrofits. but it is expensive. u can email them 250 for labour about about 400 for parts and other random stuff if necessary (shroud/shipping/etc) as for jdm projectors. they are not optimal, but as long as u r willing to flip the cutoff to lhd, then its better than in reflectors This post has been edited by elvasoshexai: Mar 2, 2008 - 6:50 PM -------------------- |
