thanks to bhomeyer :thumbsup .. im now sportin the hanabi 8000k setup too! they are fucking sweet!... you cannot show the true color or brightness through pictures. truely you need to see how these things look... AND, after rolling with the fake hids bulbs, i have my vision at night back... better than ever! cannot say enough good things about this kit.. clean setup, all plug-n-play, took me about 30mins to install. :thumbsup

Looks good. Where did you get the kit and how much did you pay?

man.. i want some hid's too.. :-)

If I got aftermarket projectors, could I still install that HID kit?
The stock headlights take what kind of bulbs...I forgot, 9006?
The aftermarket projectors take what, H3?
Could someone please clarify this for me, TIA. Im real interested.
And where did you get yur kit, I can only find 6000k kits not 8000k?

damn, looks great...oh well, I just have to settle for my superwhites now x(

I believe that they are bulb specific, not vehicle, so I would think that you could get them int the h-3 size.

SWEET!

I want too!. :thumbsup I know another 2GNT member that has them told me that www.brucesspeed.com can get them for us for $350. Is that where you got them also? If not shoot the name. We all want to know. :D

Yeah, where are you getting the Hanabi 8k hid kit? I am interested in getting it too.

skid, is that chick on your ride real, or is that cut and paste bro?!, 2nd these HID kits can be found on Ebay guys, most of them are magnavox and go anywere from 200- 350 on here. just thought id past the sources off....

wait !!!!! you have pics of your head lights, but what about the rest of your "custom" car ?????

i got my kit from www.brucesspeed.com.. it was 360shipped. its a kick ass price for us 2gnters and asog members.. i heard about it from bhomeyer and he hooked me up with the info! thanks bro!

as for the kit it was made for the 9006 replacements but im sure that they make H3 bulb conversions too.

as for the kits that i have seen on ebay, i know that most of the quality brands are going for more than 400 + outrageous shipping prices.. i would stay away from some of the no name brands too. plus these have a year manufacturer's warranty.

the people at bruce's speed shop had some kick ass customer service and i would highly recommend them. they told me that it would get here in 7-10 business days, and it came in 5. <two thumbs up>

but yea, you guys really need to see how great these look... just like looking into the headlights for the benz or beamers.

Do we need to tell them anything special when ordering the kit? Like that we are on 2gnt or something. I am ordering the kit either today or tomorrow and would just like to know. TIA!

...

i just sent you an email.. but yea.. basically, if anyone is interested in the kit.. just give the ppl at www.brucesspeed.com a call.. let them know that you are from 2gnt and/or asog.net and that you are interested in the hanabi 8000k hid kit for 350+ship. any other details.. fire away.. pz

Wow congrats, I'll have to see that kit in person...

I just ordered my HID kit today from Brucesspeed.com. Got it for $358 shipped. That's a hell of a price when I saw on the invoice that it lists for $660.

CVedEclipse, Do you have any pics of the beam pattern on a white wall? or down the road pics?

anyone know if that offer's for a limited time or anything? i'm gonna get projectors eventually, but from what you guys have said, it's s different bulb size... so they'd just be sitting around my house til i get the projectors... an i've got a 95 so i'm prolly not gettin projectors until i get my new bumper... which prolly won't be until i save up for a full kit and paint job... hehe could be about a year or so :P i mean i don't mind orderin it now to save some cash but i think it'd bug me havin a nice HID kit sittin around waiting to be used :P

oh yea maybe i'm just dumb but i can't find the hanabi HID kit on the bruce speed site... i saw some toucan brand or somethin... anyone got a link? TIA!

*edit* haha actually i don't think you can give me a link... (b/c of the way their site is setup) so... can anyone tell me where to look on their site? thanks!

i was just wondering if HID's just have like one setting or do they also have low beam and high beams. also, whats the difference between the 95-96 headlights and the 97-99 headlights?

The difference between the 95-96 headlights from the 97-99 are that the 97-99's are shorter and are black on the inside. HID's are only used on low beams. There is no need to have them on the highbeams eventhough I'm sure that you could buy a second kit for the highbeams but that's just wasting money imo. And, I don't think that they Hanabi HID kit is on their website, you just have to call. You'll probably end up talking to a guy named Bill. He's really cool and very helpful. I hope that this answered your questions.

>>CVedEclipse, Do you have any pics of the beam pattern on a white wall? or down the road pics?<<

i dont have any right now.. but ill try and get some up later tonight.

MCubed45: im not sure if they are for a limited time or not.. but all good things do eventually come to an end.. i would just call them and ask them how long they are willing to hold these prices this low for us. and the HID kit isnt on their site, just give them a call if you have questions about the kit.

>>i was just wondering if HID's just have like one setting or do they also have low beam and high beams. also, whats the difference between the 95-96 headlights and the 97-99 headlights?<<

well.. our cars have a 9005 high beam bulb , which is exactly the same as the 9006 (low beam) except that there is no blacked out tip.. im sure you could get the same kit for the high beams, but i dont know if 350 dollars for high beams is worth it, since we rarely use them, your choice tho.. or you could just get the knock off HID bulbs as high beams, i know they sell 9005 euro-lites for high beams.

sonikbewm: you are going to love your kit!

if you have your fog lights on when you turn your hid's on, does it blow the fuse?? also, when they turn on, do they have that build up to brightness like other hid's do?

sorry, i dont have fogs, so i dont know if the fuse would blow or not... and yes, when you first turn on the hids, they flicker (which look pretty frickin sweet) and then take about 5 seconds to reach full brightness.

I have fogs and no, the fuses do not blow when i turn them on all at the same time.

This is a short video from back when i was using my HIDs with the stock lights before i switched to Hella Projectors.

haha...that's right.I have to turn my fog light only on after my HID are on, otherwise the fuse will blow.

Did you kit come with new relays for the ballasts? My ballasts take power directly from the battery terminals. The new relays are triggered by the stock headlight relays i.e. power is not being drawn fromm the stock wiring to power up the ballast. Maybe you can try that.

hmm..I don't think it come with the kit.

haha well i think i solved my problem... i posted another thread regarding bulb size on the dual projectors an apparantly they take the stock size bubls (since you hafta use some parts from your stock headlights on the projectors). i think i'm just gonna order the HID's for the stock bulbs then i can still use them when i order my dual projectors later on... that should work, yes? :)
