    wow so much hostility up in here . like QD said in some other post, i notice how people make assumptions on your life just based on your birthdate. not everyone that has a car given to them by a parent is a spoiled brat. he/she may have done something great to deserve it. maybe some of us are going to colleges with tuitions per year that cost more than bmw 335's and would rather focus on education rather than work. but if you can pay for your own shit and go to grad school at the same time, then more power to ya. i'll give you a cookie .

    It is an empirical scientific fact that you cannot see as well with those lights being 10,000k HIDs versus your stock lights or 4300k or 6000k HID. The blue light is easier on your eyes, but when it comes down to visiblity, it is limited. Don't lie to yourself. I bet that if you drove to a dark area, you would be flipping your bright lights on in a second to be able to see.
    HIDs are not stupid, I have them OEM in my car. There is a reason why aftermarket HID kits are illegal... it just is not the same quality.

    Its not about saving money you dumbshit, its about the fact that drop in HID kits without projectors do not have any sort of a light cut off / glare control and blind everyone in oncoming traffic. Its about being responsible

    do you like driving around and having people bright light you all the time?

    be smart before you make a post please.

    are you a fucking idiot? Yes. you keep talking shit about retro-fit systems yet you have no reason why.. they arent for bragging purposes. they are to properly have a light cut off and eliminate glare which drop in hid kits produce.

    this thread was made to show off a new mod...not to get bashed. I do realize and understand there is glare from HID kits inside of halogen headlights. I also realize that this was a super cheap mod considering I go to school Full time, Work 40+ hours for the little bit of money i do earn, and have a daughter and fiancee to support. So I am sorry that I do not have a retrofit or did not start with one. I will have one when I free up some money and time.

    so I will leave yall with this. Retrofits are cool, and well worth the money (if you have the money). I would love to get some, but like I mentioned above. This kit is amazing for the price and quality of product. Nitro is a good seller. And everyone has his/her own opinion.

    yep, and they look damn good too. as long as the headlights are pointed right no worries. i always get blinded by some pos car with the lights in the tree's running stock halogens. usually a geo or something. they are bright but in driving school they always teach you not to look into other cars headlights, you only look at the hid's cuz the color, look into a halogen one night and you will be just as blinded. GO NITRO GO!!!

    lmao no matter how you point them they glare...you dont get blinded cuz you notice the HIDs its because your fucking headlight housing is producing glare so it fucks with people before they even notice you have HIDs....i have yet to see one stock car w/ HIDs or a HID retro to blind me with their regular low beam on....

    there was no glare last night my friend. now i've seen glare when some idiot had like 8 hid lights on his f250. i do agree that the housing is designed for a halogen bulb for max lighting. i get more glare off any car that has their lights pointed up. i already have projectors and thats what im putting my hid kit in. i have only seen the glare on a few hid kits, but the people overdid it. thats my i still think they look good in the rsx housing.

    Who cares about projector lens this, cut-off that, glare this & glare that ..

    I have a drop-in HID kit so that makes me rice by a couple peoples standards, who cares. IMO, my HIDs w/out projectors is still brighter than my halogens .. maybe 17 years ago Honda made poor headlights in the CRX?

    If it doesn't make power then don't spend too much money on it, like this whole "retrofit" do-hickey trend.

    I don't see how drop in HIDs are rice. THey are technically for off-road use only but at the proper temperature, 4100k to a lil over 6000k, they are very useful.

    Once you have HID in that range, its very very hard to drive a car at night without them. They do make that much of a difference.

    Those HID look BULBS wreck havoc. They burn harnesses, are not like HIDs period. You cannot get a bulb hot enough from a stock assembly.

    THus why HID kits have BALLASTS to heat them up.
