Ebay HID'S
#11
This is much the same reason that HIDs in factory reflector housings isn't beneficial since a lot of people who install them tend to aim them down a bit to reduce glare for oncoming traffic (which it doesn't), only to intensify foreground illumination which causes the problems mentioned above. So while HID is much brighter than factory halogen, it isn't exactly benefitting your vision (especially above 5000 kelvin temperature). Now, HID in proper projector housings is an entirely different story.

I actually bought my 8500 hid's from mustang muscle 3 years ago for 289.00 and they are a high and low beam set up and came in a hard metal foam lined case . They were phillips HID ballast (best made) and were a complete plug and play set up and have worked flawlessly since install. Sadly Mustang Muscle discontinued selling them Or so I have heard..

Depends on the state...here in WV you're allowed a maximum of 4 forward facing lights to be on at any given time, but I see people breaking that law all the time too...

You want to get your products at theretrofitsource.com for HIDs. Putting cheap HID bulbs into the factory housing emits lots of glare that is hard on the eyes of oncoming traffic, not to mention the ebay stuff and most PnP HIDs are terribly low quality (hence the low cost). Retrofitting HID projectors is the only safe and effective way to implement high intensity lighting into your vehicle. Plus it performs 100x better than the cheap plug/play stuff. Stick to 4300k or 5000k for best visibility and highest luminous output.
