H.i.d????

I been really intrested in purchasing a hid system for my car. I currently got some angel eye projectors. I dont use the projector i juss run the high beam 24/7 with sylvania ST's and im noticing that the heat of the bulb is fogging up the housing. What headlight assembly do you ppl recommend?? i been wanting 10,000k kit. If you ppl have no probs wit HID in ur projectors.. i might juss sell my angel eyes wit blue/yellow ion coated projectors and get the clear projector thats on ebay.

I didn't like the angel eye projectors... they seemed very cheaply constructed.. so I stuck with the regular projector headlights... only problem with them is I have clearance issues between my headlight housing and my CAI... but that's probably because I still have a little body work I need to do.
As far as HIDs... I have them on my Del Sol... in my opinion, they are worth the money you pay for them. bright as hell!

You get what you pay for. If you can afford HID go with it. As for ebay headlights, they tend to be cheep construction and would probably fog over and leak.

Re: H.i.d????

get an 8000k HID......if you go higher than that there is less usable light....and they look purple......the 8000k are slightly blue, and still make enough usable light...........

.......waits for JohnnyM's Reply

Well i concluded that the HID's are worth there cash. my problem is putting them into the right headlight housing. How many of you recommend the stock headlights for HID.. and how many of you ppl think the clear projectors from ebay (sonar) or the apc projectors be a alternative route? juss wanna know i dont wanna melt my housing or do any damage to the HID system
