HID upgrade~

hi all,
     I am going to upgrade my 05 mz3 holagan to HID. Can someone give me suggestion on what brand HID kit is better? and anyone knows how to DIY HID kit?

hey man whats up well i replaced the halogen bulb for hids on both headlamps and fog lights on my 2005 tribute i would reccomend the 10000k blueish purplelish color thats my opinion and any hid brand is the same just different color

 
10K's are illegal EVERYWHERE, and with good reason too.  They reduce the available light output by well over 1/3.
Look at it this way: You have a standard 75w soft white bulb.  You also have a 75w black light.  Both draw 75w for maximum output, but the black light is nearly impercetible compared to the soft white bulb.  That is slightly exaggerated, but the principal is exactly the same.  The lower the kelvin temperature, the greater the usable output.
For the best light in which to see by, stick w/4-6k's.
 
As far as kits are concerned, you get what you pay for, and these can run a couple hundred bucks for a good one.  Stay away from most eBay sellers.

Well in all honesty all aftermarket kits are

.  It's just 10000k is alot more noticable.  And as stated it doesn't produce a very good output.  The 4000k range is where you should go.  But if you desire more color no higher than 6000k.  And Apexcone has done well by me.   

David?  Is that you??? 
Someone from there finally found us out, huh?
 
 

You can't hide! And I've been here since 05 I just don't post much. 

Yes, I saw that. But since you hardly ever post (14 in 2.5 yrs?) I just became aware that you were a member.
I like it over here.  It seems closer knit, but also a lot of one-off, single question posters too.....  :(
