RR si with new hids

till222 · 06-04-2007, 11:13 PM

I have to say I'm pretty happy with how these turned out for $120.

The major problems with the install were removing those clips for the fender well. Also, the male power cord that came with the kit had the prongs too close together so I had to bend them outwards slightly to get a perfect fit.

The lights are so much brighter than stock. It rained tonight and didn’t get flashed by anyone. So they must be decent to look at when driving into them.

Those look sweet. Did you buy the kit? What temperature is that?

inyong1988 · 06-04-2007, 11:17 PM

clouds look scary.

till222 · 06-04-2007, 11:26 PM

Yeah kit 6000k. The color is a little deceiving because of my white balance with the yellow sodium lights of the parking garage.

Its accually alittle whiter than the last pic make them appear.

***jpik2003*** · 06-04-2007, 11:36 PM

looks good. Nice color.

ameuba10 · 06-05-2007, 01:55 AM

so im assuming pnp?

till222 · 06-05-2007, 11:08 AM

Yeah pnp they are kit off ebay.

Install went smooth except for the points listed in my first post. You actually don’t even need to buy any other equipment to properly mount the ballasts besides what comes in the kit.

I wish i had taken a pic. during the install when I had the passenger side in and not the driver side. There is a big difference in light output as well as the pure white of the light.

inovator7 · 06-05-2007, 01:47 PM

did you take out the fuse for the Daytime Running Lights?

***Redleg06Si*** · 06-05-2007, 02:15 PM

^^the daytime running lights are only on if your lights are off or you turn on the high beams.

MICKEY · 06-05-2007, 03:17 PM

so you get this kit from ebay?? thats a damn good price for some H.I.D.s, does anyone remember when they first came out for 5 bills?!

***sh33t_0f_p4p3r*** · 06-05-2007, 03:36 PM

i gotta rr fa5 too :-( i want hids now

***NitrousG35*** · 06-05-2007, 03:47 PM

Very nice. Light is clean and white. I love 'em!

till222 · 06-05-2007, 06:49 PM

I used to own an Audi and to convert to HID was something around $400 for the o.e.m. bosch equipment. These are def. cheeper hopefully they last a few years.

***ryryninja*** · 06-05-2007, 06:53 PM

07Ex · 06-06-2007, 09:43 AM
