Re: Halos vs HID
grab a pair of projector halos and then convert them to hid's and have the best of both worlds. looks during the day and precision lighting at night, you have my blessing haha.
here's my setup: ccfl projector halos and 8000k hid lows/fogs

Re: Halos vs HID

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/98-02...item3369c8f479
and buy some HID bulbs and just stick the bulbs in the headlights?
And are the ballast hard to do?

Re: Halos vs HID
I did grab a conversion kit off ebay for my fog lights pretty cheap, from hong kong or something but my other HID's for my day timers i bought locally. it's basically the specific bulb (9006 for low beams i believe) and a ballast. there is probably a write up on the internet somewhere. super simple to install.
but the kit it self... (just grabbed this off google images or a generic one because they look the same.) also you arent going to get a suitcase with it.Wait, Is that a V6 or V8?

Re: Halos vs HID
Lol.yea. I'm just trying to get a gameplan around on how I want to do everything this winter since my baby will be sitting in the shop. I just hate the factory lights at night plus i for the fog on my drivers side headlight. I want something that looks good and is really bright but doesnt look like a ricer/import lol

Re: Halos vs HID
DDM tuning 2 in/out power harness. I recommend it for headlights and fogs when you do HIDs. Some have no problems without it, but I personally had nothing but problems with HIDs til i started using them.

Re: Halos vs HID

my specific model ccfl's are H3/H4 bulbs and stock bulb type for the fogs. some of the halos have stock 9006/9005 housings or various others so make sure you have them before you assume and buy a conversion kit that doesnt have the right bulb type.pacesetters|full 3" borla exhaust|3" stainless e-cutout|slp cai & ram intake|c/f whisper lid|tbs|eibach|kyb|stb|sfc's|adj.lca's & phb|slp fan|b&m t5|180*|z06 17x9.5|8000k hids|hptuners|d/s rotors
