  • so whats the difference between these and what is already on my car?

  • @cmanclan101 If you have halogens on your vehicle then these lights would upgrade your lighting output and allow you to illuminate the road much better. These HID kits are very popular with people who need more light output and want to get the new technology with out having to pay dealership prices.

  • Yeah, our capacitors eliminate the flickering issues that most new cars will have. They rock!

  • Well done, does anyone know the difference between the blue and the white light. I really would like to have the white ones because personaly I think the blue are amature and cheap. -Gil

  • nice video! very well done!

  • wow totally misleading information. First off HID bulbs dont have a filament that burns like halogen bulbs. so OIL will not effect the bulb or the arc that ignites the gas. as far has harnessing is concerned..you can just plug your factory harness into a ballast. that's what the second plug is for. to plug into the ballast and then plug into your factory harness really poor explain of HID's if you want better info visit HIDGuy.Net. Better kits that control amps upon start up .

  • hid lights are the shit

  • Thank you for taking the time to show as and inform us. I have a Volvo xc90 2005 I m wondering if that would work with my car specialty the error canceler.

  • @wdbwfan

    The common aftermarket blue light is rated 6,000-8,000 k on the color temperature scale. Many simple plug-in-kits include these bulbs because they are initially more attractive to buyers.

    Pure white (the ones in BMW headlights) are 4,300 k.

    5,000 is going to have a hint of blue that might be enough to attract police attention.

  • Nice hands bro

  • @wdbwfan yeah the good while light is about 4800k - 6000k and the blue ricer style light is 8000k - 15000k

  • @wdbwfan illegal too haha
