As I was the only person to respond to your question on the Club site, I'll repeat my post here:
HID lighting is a system, not a bunch of parts. HID fixtures have lens designs that are suited for the size, shape, and brightness characteristics of the bulbs. You are likely to have poor performance and misdirected light using lenses/housings designed for conventional bulbs. Oh, and they're most likely NOT DOT approved in the configuration/application you're contemplating, which means they're ILLEGAL for use on the road. Keep that in mind. Others here have posted similar thoughts, less the legal point. It would be wise to think about the "bang for the buck" as well as the likelihood of annoying dispersion issues. The Cap'n |
