Yes plz...what about the low beam,is there an upgrade for these.

[GALLA_4]

I thought you had the 9006 HID kit in the low beam housings?

Dont you mean the 9005 main beam housing?

[Rob]

low beam??? thought u had the HID kit on ur low beam, dont say u have it on the high beam.

SNAP Fluff LOL

Pete, don't have the link but if you go over onto IS300.net or whatever it is called nowadays there was a guy over in the US who upgraded all bulbs to HID - the dipped, mains, and fogs!!!

Meant three pairs of ballasts but it was mega!

PIAA EXTREME FORCE bulbs IN FOGS

Really bright with a nice blue tinge! MAy have these bulbs available soon as I am replacing the whole bumper for the Legana bumper and new round fogs. These bulbs are GBP£80 per pair and I put them in about 7 weeks ago.

I thought HID was supposed to be on high beam, just like it is with OEM HID e.g. on the IS300?

[aido]

The standard hid upgrades only upgrade the dipped beam - ie not the sidelights or the main beam as far as I know.... I thought the OEM IS300 had standard Halogen bulbs for the mains / full and HID's for the dipped?

I wouldn't personally upgrade my main beam as I hardly ever have need to use it - same goes for the fogs.....

The foglights I got from Zee were more functional than cosmetic in that yellow is the optimal colour for fog lights, and it just so happens to be a nice change over here in the UK where most fogs aren't yellow so the car stands out more :)

ot i know, but have to ask

where do you leave alex in a trailer park? : :winky:

I think the main reason HID's are not use on main beams is cos they take a second or so to warm up so you wouldn't be able to flash your headlights

beware dude .... some kits made in china are horrible. If the brand is H.I.D. .... u should steer clear away. What brand are they? how much is he askin u to pay?

i'm in hong kong .. so i see alot of these things :P

if i were u, i'd get a good quality kit for HIDs .... its a lot less headache, when it comes to bulb life, ignitor problems, and crazy/overheating ballasts ....

I brought some of these

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...me=STRK:MESE:IT

Just recieved them today and installed they are quite impressive. Much brighter and actually look legal ,

Also at a bargain price

I would reccomend to any one interested in changing bulbs.
