Whatever you get, dont get Ford 2008 HID's, they are over $500 each.....

 

I have an '08 and my wife has an '05. I didn't even know there was a difference, so it can't be that noticable.

 

Im disappointed in the HID I've seen. Its a reflector, not a projector, so its not the pretty rainbow of colors you see on higher end cars. its just a brighter bulb in a moving reflector.

And the bulb it uses is, as people said above, some mercury-free safe bulb, so its not as bright as HIDs we've grown used to.

Anyways.... I'm disappointed. I was hoping we could bring some cool modern high-end rainbow of colors into these muscle cars, but no....

 

Does anyone have a pic of the 08 HID's at night?

 

Nah, not as much as you think on these cars. In fact, I gaurentee that my HIDs light the road better than yours[8D]. I will agree with you on the fog lights on these cars-- where it is a completely unshielded beam, they do produce a lot of glare. But look good around dusk--I never run them at night for respect to other drivers.

 

fancy housings, and what not. just get the ones from american mucle and you will be happy. No need for HID 08 or saleen housings.

 

does your 2008 have the HIDS? its an option so that may be why you cant tell a difference.

 

the aftermarket hid kit i have does have a slight glare, but thats a small price to pay versus the light output. if you live in the city you wont have any one flash you, but if you drive down dark roads frequently you will get flashed.

 

Junk.Wouldent ever get suckered in to a set of those.

 

I got them for $100 a kit.
