So im replacing my headlights and want to swap to HIDs so im not sure where to get the housings that ARE ACTUALLY HID compatible not the crap ones that say they are but they are ebay specials just trying to get the money i need headlights that are made and have proper cut of so on
plz help
Also what in the hell are these headlights that are so called "projector" headlights are they actaully what i need for the hids and why are there two bulbs sorry for the stupid questions but i just want a headlight that looks good and is Hid compatible thasnks for any help

 

up

 

Projector: (S2000)



Non-Projector: (IS300)



To the best of my knowledge, in order to get a real OEM HID compatible setup you need to either buy it from the parts department (mucho $$$), salvage it from a wreck at the junkyard, or you can scour ebay. Both the IS300 and S2000 are designed for HID in their headlamp unlike a civic for example. The reason for two bulbs would be, I think, bi-xenon HID, being that your high beams are also HID. Personally, I think high beams should stay as regular Halogens cause once you get true HID you rarely need to use your high beams any more. That, coupled with the fact that HID takes a few moments to heat up, and should not be flicked on and off rapidly, are not favorable conditions for HID in the high beams.

 

You're probaby thinking of Retrofits which is what you'll need done to your car in order to have the HIDs work properly with your car. If you need some projectors, I have some E46 Bi-xenon projectors(BMW) I can sell you. I've been doing retrofits for people for about 3 years now and have plenty of vouchs for my work

 

yep retrofit is the way to go

its for just the bare headlight.
i hit a deer. broke my hand too, so excuse the shitty tag.
its a 2005 headlight. its mint except for the mounting tabs.. they snapped, so the light bounces around.

 

you got lucky with that fuggin deer
Thanks for all the posts like jbell my car got into a litlle fiasco with a bear last night so umm yea the hid conversion is going to wait until spring when i get the 99-00 conversion for my front end thanks all and if you still have parts or are willing to do the retrofit let me know

 

also another question is
is there a way to make my retro fit have a "high beam i know that all the low beam is a cut off but is there a way to put that cut off cover in there so when im in deer country i can have them cut off higher per say sorry if you cant understand me im having a hard time explaining things

bi-xenon?

 

get a bi-xenon setup...

and o yea, a bi-xenon only uses one bulb...the projector itself moves the shield and lets thru more light...

 

thats what i needed to know thank you very much all

 

once you got hid you'll never go back... youve been warned

 

or tyc projectors... not bad for aftermarket projectors
