Xenon white headlights

[Lean Wid IT]

i bought some xenon white headlight bulbs by liteglow for my car h1 and h3 100w and 60 w respectively but i find they not makin ne difference...and they loookin like teh normal incandescent bulbs....i seein cars with the hyper whites which look kinda blueish...and much brighter but NOT the hid's eh......neone know what i talkin bout?

thats what i want.....anyone has?

first of all 100w bulbs will melt yuh bulb holders if u didnt upgrade them or add a relay.
and use google you will see why whiter light isnt necessarily better

[equipped2ripp]

you didn't buy a high temperature bulb.

on the package, how much thousand K (measured in kelvin) are you seeing? 4000K by chance?

I ent really going through this again, nuh.

Not too long ago, there was a review about "super whites". Do a search.

And hold this:

I beg to differ to some extent on what is posted above, but maybe my eyesight has deviated.

Projector Retrofit yo

HID kit is the best way to go, doh study anybody who say is less light an all kinda sheit

it will be less eyestrain 4 u. higher colour temps are more expensive though... I think $1600 for a 10000K kit. but if u want super WHITE then u need a lower temo than that

[equipped2ripp]

the increase in temperatures doesn't mean an increase in price

[VK-Sportsman]

theblitz, HID kit is NOT the way to go..........projector retrofit, YES

[Samiir_Tuner]

^ not all stock housings make hids look like that...give the man money to do a good quality retrofit nah

[equipped2ripp]

yeah but retrofits aren't available locally

[VK-Sportsman]

equipped2ripp, a retrofit is really taking out the projector from an oem- HID equipped car and fitting it in your headlamp, so that u get the benefits of OEM hid.....but u must have it aimed and aligned correctly to get the best output from it.

[Samiir_Tuner]

yeah but retrofits aren't available locally

these days ppl from trinidad bringing in anything..why not a set of retrofitted headlights?


retrofitting is not that easy...many ppl have attempted to do it and then send their headlights to the pros...im not saying that it cant be done by u but it takes some skill

[equipped2ripp]

SUZUKI SPORTsman, yeah i know what it is

[Terran]

We have all these threads on HID... you would think one would learn something by now.

[theblitz]

equipped2ripp, didn't mean that higher temperatures are necessarily more expensive. the trends in prices show this though...

SUZUKI SPORTsman, I wasn't comparing to projectors.... was comparing to the stock and low temperature aftermarket bulbs from the link Terran posted.

retrofit all the way!! I see some men with some HID's point way up into the clouds giving man blasted headache on the highway!! And that is them fellas low beam!!!

[Terran]

I saw a... couldn't tell what car it was - with an HID kit the other night.

Those headlights were so blinding with glare that even after the car passed me, I was still seeing huge blue spots before me. If I wasn't convinced about the dangers to using kits before, I am now.

[Samiir_Tuner]

uall ever drove with an incoming cadillac escalade with projector hids? just as bad as those 6000k + PnP..those things blind u like maddd..some PnP kits look really nice though, like stock
