7000k HID

7000k HID

sup people...finally got my HIDs installed thanks to my friend's Ray and Ryan from SC3...thanks go out to achint for that DRL diy...i couldn't have got HID w/out dissabling DRLs

oh yeah i have yellow H3's in the fogs...those are not stock bulbs (going for that is300 look :wink

ok time for pics

biter...

lol yeah curt...after i seen them yellow fogs i just had to copy j00! :mrgreen:

of course your's arent real Altis fogs like mine =p

man Zero that looks tight, i love it. Before i always said i would never get HIDs, its too expensive just to get good looking lights, but now i want it bad, hehehe. Hows the lighting on the road? Any improvement there with HID and the "stock-ish" head lights instead of projectors? Cuz if the lighting on the road is worse then im not gona get them because i do a lot of driving in the mountains when its pitch black, and i dont need a deer for a hood ornament, lol.

But ya now i want some HIDs.

looks hella sweet art, the car looks complete now, new wheels and the HID's

New wheels...woohoo!!! :wink:

The HID's look sweet as he** though. As much as I love blue, I should probably get those, too....a ways down the road, haha.

I must say the HID are beautiful, and i want some now too :cry: Well did you put silverstars in the highbeams or are those stock highs because if they are silverstars they look quite yellow compared to HID.

i got CATZ HID's.. 5100K i have pics on my site www.cardomain.com/id/ballerrolla The lighting is WAYYY BETTER THAN STOCK.. I light up the whole road at night Dunno how 7000K is tho.. i heard the higher u go the less lumens they give out... I think 4300K to 4500K is best in terms of lighting up the road .. thats what the lexus and mercedes use... think 4500K is usually rated 3200 LUMENS.. stock bulbs are usually around 1100 lumens.. 5100K is 2200 lumens nad it usually goes down a bit from there the higher kelvin temp u go up.. neways LOOKS GOOD ZERO!! hows the lighting on the road at night???

and oh yeah HID's are illegal to sell now .. so better get them fast..
check out

7000k doesn't light up as much as 5100k...but its still very bright haha...my nighttime vision is awsome...way better than my old silverstars 8) ...ill try to take a pic so you can see how well they light up the road

...biter? I had the yellow fogs first



...anyways, if I keep my S I've been considering the Catz HID kit.

HID lighting up a dark road w/ no lights

:mrgreen:

people have been telling me that they could not see the yellow fogs...i put the camera on the ground and let the timer snap the shot...u can see them now...they're pretty bright...in the other pics they just looked like OEM bulbs =p

Love it! That combination looks so tight!!! 8)

lol... biter means you copied someone... i didnt see you with yellow fogs... but Art saw me with them... so =p
besides, mine are altis housings...

pics look awesome zero.. I like the purplish color the 7000K gives off.. PRETTY COOL

dang i want HID. I didn't know they were illegal to buy now, I bet i could get the set from the Celica GT-S at the dealership.

You won't be able to install HIDs from a FACTORY-installed (not dealership) car onto a vehicle that never had them to begin with. By regulation, all factory-installed HIDs must have a headlight housing or function that allows for auto-leveling. Aftermarket HID kits you get a bulb, ballast, igniter, and few wires. There is no auto-leveling function on aftermarket HIDs since each car model requires a unique calibration/alignment performed and tested at the factory in order for the auto-leveling to work properly and in order to have approval to let the car roll of the assembly line. Factory HIDs all have auto leveling built into them, aftermarkets do not. Nor can you adapt factory HIDs to any other vehicle. Sorry!

Those 7000k HIDs look nice though. But I'm sure they also attract more attention from the five-oh. I was wondering if you re-aimed your headlights toward the ground though. I noticed that when you took the ground shot that the headlights were NOT glaring into the camera. Shouldn't they be re-aimed to point a little downward so as not to blind other drivers? That might decrease your chance of a ticket for an illegal mod, right?

cops are actually driving right past me, i haven't had any problems yet

as for adjusting them...theyre not aimed high...we checked and they're fine there was no need for adjustment

lol I'm an outlaw :twisted:

yeah didnt have to reaim or readjust mine either.... I had my friend drive my car head on .. Its not blinding..

well I was wondering how much did yall pay for the hid's? I am looking into getting some but I want the 8000 I think its the highest number... Really not for sure

email me at justin.a.freeman@exxonmobil.com

8000K is really purple and i wouldnt suggest it cuz i've read online where people got tickets for them. Plus the light output is not as good and you will have to pay for more.

Hey squirrelmaster/syndicate/zero can you please tell me where you got your yellow H3 bulbs from? I don't mean to copy you guys or anything but I live in SF and it gets really foggy...I realized that my xenon foglights don't help me at all and the xenon headlights don't perform too well in deep foggy weather. Thank you very much!!!!

I believe they are called osram all-season bulbs. dont know where to get them though

WTB Phillips or Osram Bulbs?
