Any better, is that a joke?
They are aimed wrong, putting light 20 feet down on the road, and it still is lighting up the darkness ahead. They are rediculous man.
Oh, and I need to finish the speaker boxes in the trunk, haven't got any farther than the pics I posted. I little better with just one box installed, need to detail them up and install both.
Probably going to put that foam hat in there too.

Look good! Wow, your stock headlight is horrible. Might be too much sun heat or something.

I probably will get spyder projector. I guess I will deal with chrome corner as I wish it has black corner. Guess that's better than nothing. I won't use HID on it. I will see how projector night look. If it is good then I can leave it alone. Why I refuse use HID beause I'm deaf. I need use key remote from flash my light to know it is locked. I know HID is not good for flashing. I have been working night shift since 2001. I use stock light bulb since from my 1997 Oldsmobile Cutless to Pontiac Grand Prix stock headlight. Of course lot of people use stock light too. I never see any HID on road but sometimes from Lexus, BMW or Audi.

patrick, I have HID's in my projectors and i still have my flash activated to lock/unlock the car and I have yet to have a problem. HID's are FAR better for visibility reasons and you wont "blind" anyone while driving.

Yeah, and they've lasted so far so I'm sure it's a good idea.

i know plenty of people that do and no one has had a problem..

i know its not a good idea but I just dont have the patience to putz around trying to disable it. So far it hasnt hurt anything and if they do burn out, than ill buy new ones...oh well.

Tim has reached balla status. I have seen that dude burn $100 bills because they aren't crisp enough. A set of bulbs is nothing to him.

I can't figure out how to disable mine, given the directions are in another language.
And Palsut, all the money you spend so far and given you drive during a.m. hours, spend the $58 on HIDs shipped to your door in 3 days. Amazingly better.
You'll get to see how many people drive around with piss yellow headlights.

It seriously took me 2 minutes, I hope you know where the "off" position is, past where you can remove the key.

That's pretty dumb to waste your bulbs like that, but I guess that's me

I will try it a shot. Got a lot tax refund last Friday.

Let see...

Get LED black projector.. umm I mean spyder projector wink

Get HID 9007 6000K. I see website about $41 shipped from hid sale thread from "everything else" that should cover everything what I need.

Is that all? Do I miss some?

As you know this aftermarket HID is very illegal. I will print this thread and show that cop that you all guys make me doing that so I should off hook and put stock light back. lol
