The low beams are halogen projectors here a pic an the hi beams are just like the ones in the pics on top of this page. Then when I save up some $$$ I'll upgrade to HID high beams to match the low beam projectors for a full set.

The low beams are halogen projectors here a pic an the hi beams are just like the ones in the pics on top of this page. Then when I save up some $$$ I'll upgrade to HID high beams to match the low beam projectors for a full set. It would be better to have HID low beams because of the ways hi beams are used. Hi beams are normally blinked or change from off to on to off to on. HID's really dont like this kind of thing. They are like those streetlamps in that they have to 'strike' and then come up to temperature. The strike is what is hardest on the bulb and the transformer and using them as a 'blinking' light will burn the bulb out very quickly. Using them as headlights is fine because they are on and stay on for a prolonged period, which is fine for them. Just FYI new HID bulbs run ~$250 |
