Why do you want to use 8000K? That's less light out put than OE 4300K and the color will ensure you get charged for illegal lighting. You shouldn't go higher than 5000K

Well, I have done some research on HIDs and I've decided to stick it out with my regular bulbs...They work fine for me and I have no poblems...saves me the money anyway...

For all of you who wants to know why I have decided to stick with my original bulbs is because I have learned that the HIDs only last for 3000 hrs. which is equivalent to 250 days if only used 12 hrs. a day. So, I'd rather keep my original bulbs and save the time of always having to buy new HIDs when the time comes...

but why does one need HID's?

Dark tint I could understand.. if yuh a bandit or doh like bright light or real heat..by all means,

excessivly loud music...yuh could be half deaf and thats the only way yuh could hear Kumar, dat fine

but HID's...if yuh half blind you shouldnt be driving.

i dont know why ppl retrofit them to anything else other than projector type headlamps.
they blind everyone else on the road.

proper HIDs do not affect oncoming drivers.
either projector type with the line, or the actual HID with the builtin blind is good.

Didn't read tru all post but HIDs are not illegal some vehicles come from showroom with them but if you how ever go above 4300 they are but you can still slide with a 6k kit.

but there are ways to work around it according to bulb type if u have say Projectors u can put a kit on high and fogs and leave low beam factory. If u need ne more info feel free to ask.

Its a $200 ticket btw
