Default Installed my HIDs, now here are pics.

I bought the Misterjungs 5200k 9006 kit. I'm impressed. The install was straight forward, no glitches.

The beam pattern on the road from the outside. I am in the process of re-aiming my lights.


White!


Artistic.


Warming Up.


Front.


White still.


From inside the car.



I LOVE EM!

to halogens!

Hell no! Not here at least. As long as they are aimed properly, I should be OK!

Thats weird. Some states dont have emissions and inspections...lol!

In Utah they happen yearly. These should pass no problem... especially with the place I take my car for inspection.

It shouldn't, my 4300K Phillips HID are totally white, so his are going to be more blue than mine.

I think the yellow comes from the headlight housings. Its hard to explain, but mine have a spot in the lens that looks yellow if you look at it from a certain direction. No biggie though. Its all about the light that hits the road anyways!

Mine has no yellow on the road, just bright white.

Nice retro dude! But do you notice on your pic from the inside, the glare is lighting up the entire neighborhood! The cops will nab you for that cuz you're gonna blind oncoming traffic. I retroed in some X5 projectors into my car and it's awesome and its somewhat legal . I have pics if you wanna see what they look like. Just warning ya about the glare!

I do have plans of doing an OEM HID retrofit. The only problem I have... the HID bulbs I have now have the 9006 base molded to them.

But I am still on the prowl for OEM HID projectors. And I would love to see pictures of your retrofit.

As for the glare, Ive seen my car comming from down the street, and the glare didnt seem to be any worse than any other car. IDK...
