Subject: what is the experience converting these to HID's Author: rv8flyboy : member since September, 2007 : 2970 posts Posted on: 2011-12-13 10:27:15

I am thinking of buying HIDs for my car and am wondering about board members experiences here...

I see them as loose bulbs/starters and as complete units with halo's installed, there there appears to be a slew of temps (color) for the lights

any recommendations??

I told my wife, it is not a Boy Toy, is a Man's Machine!!
