    Default Do AP1 S2K's come with HID Headlights?

    So do AP1's come w/HID's?

    Life begins at 6000 RPMS.. You will notice an audible change in engine noise, large increase in acceleration and any female passengers will immidiately start to remove their clothing.

    Thats why I asked because Ive heard mixed opinions on this.

    So it's easier to remove ballasts and rewire for ordinary halogens?

    You may have seen a 2006+ with the DRLs (daytime running lamps) on. On my car, if I don't actually switch the headlights on, the DRLs come on automatically. The DRL for this car involves using the high beams on a low setting. So it may look like the car has halogens, because the high beams are simple halogen lights. I personally loathe that look, so I always turn on my HIDs when I am in the car.

    If you do that, I believe an error light would come on. It really isn't that hard to just turn on the lights when I get in the car.

    Both of these statements are correct.
