  • H.I.D's?

    Hey guys. I really want to buy a h.i.d kit for my camaro. I bought new headlights and HIDs are up next. Does anyone know a good brand or place to buy them from? Ive heard Xenon aren't good.. Any suggestions?

      I kind of want to look into these as well. A simple search for HID brings up a lot of threads where people have gone down this patch. I hate how bad the lighting is to the sides on my car. Sometimes at night there are corners I go around where I can't really see where I'm going because it's not in the beam path. I'm considering some projector fog lights.
      96 White M5 Camaro. Manual everything. Magnaflow cat, dynomax dual outlet axle back. Swapped to a disc rear with 3.42s and a torsen differential, kyb gr2 rear shocks, moog rear endlinks.

          Go to DDM tuning for your HIDs. No need to spend $100+ on Chinese HID kits. Currently Ive got 4500K (35W) in my low beams and 3000K (55W) in my fogs.

            DDM is good. Takes a while sometimes to get your stuff cuz it's coming all the way from china. Btw don't go any higher than 6000k, and I don't even recommend that. The higher the temp the WORSE the light output. If you get projectors, that famous blue tint that everyone loves will be seen so don't worry if that's what you were wondering. Either 4500-5000k is best. Also get the 50w ballasts, stronger than the 35's and better output. I have hella projectors in my bird, so much better than stock

                  oh cool i didnt know BBLS made camaro retrofits. Id definitely look into those he makes good stuff. Thats actually a steal compared to what he wants for a firebird setup, $600-800!

                          HID install is a joke. Takes no more than 10 mins. Same as changing the light bulbs, just have to mount the ballast.


                          DDM is the best choice. Love mine.

                            Yeah hooking them up is no problem, just don't put em in without projectors or you'll piss off a lot of people and the output will suck. Do you have a camaro or a firebird?

                              I have a Camaro and I do not have projectors. I capped the bulbs with tin foil to deflect the light backwards which takes away that blinding effect you get in most stock headlights. Haven't had any complaints yet.
