It comes with free Xenon Plasma white 8000k HID bulbs, exactly what I wanted! But I was wondering if all I need is the bulbs, or if I need something else to have them on my car.
To have HIDs you need to have ballasts as well as the bulbs. You would be better off just getting a kit. Mine are 6000k and i got them from these guys.
I bought from them, the shipping was fast and i just used my credit card. The lights have been fine for the past 2 months. Its plug-and-play. The link i gave you is the bulb size you need for the low beams, '9006'. 8000k is going to have a very blueish tint. I like mine because they are just a hint of blue and give it an almost factory look.
I found a site they sell them for $94.00 free shipping and they give you a2 year warranty . They have high , low and fog light bulbs 9005 high , 9006 low and H11 fogs. I'm going to put them up and try them out when i get them i'll let you know how they are.
i do not have a problem with just installing HID kits, but without a ballast, HID lights seems to be super bright lights spraying everywhere. there are no cut offs like normal ballast installed HIDs.
Im looking to get the HID kit and do it all myself. Do I need to get 2 different kits for high and low beams? What do most people do about the high beams when they buy the HID kits?
My understanding is, HID High beams aren't worth the hassle. When "Flashing" another motorist, the lag time to them becoming fully charged takes to long for them to be effective. I use HID low beams (& it is 100% better) & 6000K high beam bulbs...I can see a mile ahead.........
Anyone with HID high beams should not flash them on and off.
But i could see how one would forget because sometimes we use them to signal other drivers.
That's why i kept the stock setup on my high beams.
How would 10k bulbs look on a 2008 civic si.............is that too much/worth it? Would this causes any damages?
