Default 2010 Style Raxiom Headlights

I wanted to find out with anyone is familiar with these lights on AM.

http://www.americanmuscle.com/2010-h...oked-0509.html

It mentions on the page that they're not meant for HID's but I noticed in some of the reviews, people mentioned using HID's in them. Has anyone here used HID's with these lights and did you have any problems with using them? I really don't want to go back to my halogen lights but I really like this housing.

Thanks.

I use a 55w ddm HID kit in mine. No problems for over a year. Your mileage may vary.

I have these Raxiom Headlights. What color bulb are you using and do you like the light pattern? Also did you get the H9 Kit?

Thanks!

So what wires did you have to splice? or no splice was needed?

The Raxiom Kits has a splice for the parking light. The HID kit was all plug n play.
