Is there somewhere that all of you guys bought yours from? Anyone have any advice for me?

most've us bought from brucesspeed.com just give 'em a call and tell 'em you're from 2gnt. you wont' find it on their site. it's that hanabi 9000k HID kit. umm if you've got stock lights you're good. just order the 9006 bulb size. if you upgrade to projectors they won't work though. if you change your lights the only ones that'll work is the dual projectors. those use the same bulb size (9006). regular projectors use h3 bulbs. k hope that helped. HID's kick ass. you'll like 'em . check out sonikbewm's posts. he's got nice pics.

You guys just have the HID's on the low beams right? So you never use your highbeams anymore do you? They'd just get drowned out in the HID's correct?

Yeah, the highbeams are pointless with HID.

they have a new 9000k setup.. but so far no one has got them.. you will love your 8000k setup.

and they are selling them for 350plus shipping.. just ask for the 2gnt/asog discount.

What color is the 9000k kit?
39113, RE: HID's
Posted by CVedEclipse, Jan-21-03 09:45 PM
well..

6000k is the pure white, like the mercedes
7000k is the purplish tint, like the bmws
8000k is the pure white with more blue tint than the 6000k

im not sure, but i think the 9000k is one shade bluer.

Is the 9000k kit the same price or is it gonna be more? Damn $350 is such a good deal but the stupid exchange rate sure bites me in the ass :(

Maybe next year :)

the price is the same for all colors.

yea, you get a set of low beams (9006s, or h3s).. but they do have some for the highbeams (9005s)

With the HIDs, would it be better to have projector headlights or will it look just fine, and be as bright with only the stock headlights? Like if I was going to get the kit, would I be just as satisfied hooking them up to my stock headlights?

I liked the HID kit better when it was in my stock headlight housings. The projectors caused more glare, therefore people were high beaming me a lot more with the projectors as opposed to the stock headlight housings.

www.brucesspeed.com I got mine last month, but I have yet to install them. No garage and snow with 0- weather hasn't helped. x( I got the 8k one. And yes you have to call and have access to a fax machine to order.

no highbeams are not pointless....when you have 6300k highs... Having both the www.mccullochhid.com kit and the hanabi 8000k hids... they are both nice kits. The mcculloch though is much better quality when you look at the components. I had bought the 6300k kit before the hanabi though...it was a good price i just couldnt pass up. so now I have 2 kits for under 500. my problem...use them as high beams or buy some cheap little plastic fogs and rig them to that somehow?

I do a lot of driving to fresno/ visalia and having a farm up there in the middle of nowhere I do a lot of driving on country roads...(no lights).

I don't care if I have factory high beams. They still help out the HIDs

Has anyone used the 5000k hyper white bulbs? I found them for about 10.00 on ebay. If anyone does have them how close to the 6k or 7k are they?

i just read some webpage that someone posted on dsmtuners.com and i think it said that the 4100k kit is the best hid kit to get because it lights up the road the best and is the truest white ill post the webpage once i remember it. i was just wondering if this was true and if www.brucesspeed.com sells hanabi in that kit.
