dood. you can get new ones for $500 from visualdynamics.ca but currently their site is down. I had gotten new ones for about $535 plus shipping. This assumes you want the ones from Canada (which I have).

I am sure you've seen this before(courtesy of Yoshi234©).


shutter speed captures in more light with the camera... but you get the idea. I can not drive with regular lights anymore

I had a set....I had to sell them, but if I ever buy another set of HID's, it'll be the Philips 4300k kit. Nothing is brigher.

I think it also depends on angle of the camera and shutter speed, etc.. Here's a pic in the dark, without allowing more light into the camera:

I got HID's and they're pure white. I can't see any hint of blue in it at all. They're too expensive but worth every penny IMO.

I'm never going back. Get it! But be sure you get them from someone you can trust.

Another plus is.. If its bright enough it will make it so you cant be clocked by cops from the front.. It will mess up their radar and send back "error"

Too bad they don't have the price listed on their site.. or you can't buy it right away.

buying HID for looks =

all these guys buying 6000K, 8000K, 10,000K etc.. what a waste of money.. sure they're a little bit better than halogen (not much). but the 4100-4300K is ideal for all conditions, plus they dont make the ground look all purple.. the ground is white, like it should be.. if you're worried about the color of your light, you might as well buy PIAA plasma bulbs..they shine just as bright as your average 6000 or 8000K kit.. and are a lot cheaper

are you KIDDING me? LOL, the 4300K Philips kit actually appears the color of a stock bulb , i'm surprised the picture above shows a white output. Maybe some appear like that? The ones i've seen in person appear the color of a stock bulb. I know it looks white right when you turn it on, but within 30 sec., it transfers to yellowish-white. Bottom line, 6000k+ is NOT a ' little ' better than halogen, it is MUCH better. You will NEVER get the same look with a ' Piaa ' plasma bulb.
