I am interested in putting HID's on my car. I have seen a couple of sets used, and just wanted to know what to look for when buying them, either used or brand new. Thanks.

 

Brand name, quality, fit, plug and play, amount of use/ hours.

I bought a used Catz 4300K kit and could not be any happier.

 

Visual Dynamics 4300k Philips here. Was probably the best quality/price of its time. Catz and Xenon Depot are among my favorites also.

 

Bbasso = #1 stunna these days

Anton = who if he actually drove his car at night would also be interested in HID's

 

After driving behind my buddy's ITR with the Phillips kit....I want one bad...

Do either one of you have pics of your setups?

You guys mind telling us what you paid or if you know any places to get a good deal currently?

 

If I told you you would never find a legit setup for that price.

Way way low. lets say under 250

 

Wow lucky guy! I've heard though that for some reason there was something illegal in the US about the Catz models which is why they stopped distributing them in the US? I heard they were great though.

 

Legal?? - Illegal??, nothing is legal about my car, any Cop would have a ball writing tickets...

 

.....myself I just look for one thing:

Night and day diff.....

 

I'm using Osram 8000k hid's........... pretty color (plug-n-play is nice )

 

I"m in the same boat. except im broke as all, cant afford $1k worth of HID's like i've often seen

 

I'm rocking the the Catz 4300k and am loving them....Definatly try to stay as close to 4300k as possible anything after that ie: 6000k is really purple and isn't as bright....Thanx again bbasso for the help when I was buying my setup....

 

any time

couldn't agree more. my Catz kit is awesome although i wish the cutoff were better in my non-hid projectors.

not just catz models, but all aftermarket hids.

 

wtf? is trevor at visual dynamics no longer in business?

&lt;------ wondering why the website is down.

 

What's up guys. I bought a Lexus IS300 HID kit for my Type R. I purchased it from another Integra owner who lived near me and he took it out of his car and put it in my car all in about 15 minutes. Not difficult at all to install. I dremeled down the base of the D2R bulb and cut away an old 9006 bulb leaving nothing but an O ring with the 9006 socket fitting thing. Couple spots of epoxy to fasten the O ring to the D2R bulb and it fits and turns into the stock headlight housing just like the 9006 bulb did.

 

How about a HID kit with low/high beams?

 

xenon depot 4,300k kit









if i were you i'd go s2k retro fit

 

and if i get a 9006 low beam kit,

it wont fit and make a bright light with the oem linses?

in my last car i had xenon also, after modification of the head light it was nice.

but before i blended a lot of people....
