New HID kit

[ctrlraven]

I don't know anything about the 55w kit cause that's overkill for our halogen headlamp housing. I would contact the vendor about it.

Clear Plastic Ring

CtrlRaven:

The clear plastic ring in the below picture is discarded - correct and not reused?

Discard, I did not use it nor found any use for it. I questioned about it also.

why are the H1 hid bulbs diff (much skinnier) from the regular H1 bulbs chris?

 

[ctrlraven]

HID bulbs are designed differently than halogen bulbs.

HID stands for High Intensity Discharge. It refers to lighting technology that relies on an electrical charge to ignite xenon gas contained in a sealed bulb. The technology of HID automotive lamps is similar to that of common vapor-filled street lamps. HID lighting doesn't have a filament but instead creates light by igniting an arc between two electrodes. HID lights get their name from the intense white light produced by the electrical discharge. HID lamps are also called xenon lamps, referring to a gas inside the lamps.

you know if you check out retro solutions web site they sell stubby H1 HID bulbs that are the same size as your factory ones. the light ball inside the light also lines up better.

If a bulb goes bad by the same one again or get a different kit altogether. For as much as a bulb is on some sites it would be cheaper to get a new ddmtuning.com kit lol.

[ctrlraven]

I bet that is a million times better than the old lights!! lol
