They look great but get projectors for a better, less erratic, LEGAL beam.

most run 35w for fogs, not main headlights. Regardless the OEM housing is NOT designed for HID lights and put out to much light thats not focused. You MUST adjust the beams down so you dont blind the world, BE SURE TO POINT THEM DOWN A BIT!

Usually on OEM lamps. 55W cause literal MELTING of most aftermarket housing. Running 35W (which is PLENTY) is the best way to curb housing melt. I have the single bulb 35W kit from stang net for my head lights. They are fantastic.

whered you order from? after reading the last thread about hids and having extremely poor visability this morning from all the rain and fog I'm seriously considering ordering some!
Ddmtuning.com, they take some time for shipping but many friend/cousin use them and they have good quality/price. Ya I think the stock headlights suck.

I was talking about 55W in an aftermarket headlight housing. I also said "most". On my raxiom projectors I'm almost sure they'd melt. They already get soft with the 35W hehe.

Anyone have any issues with their HID kit? I first installed the kit without a relay and my lights flickered.. So I ordered a relay kit and installed, same thing except the relay started buzzing when I had the car on. i read on a forum somewhere that a capacitor would help so I bought one and hooked it up to the relay and the relay stopped buzzing but the lights still flicker. It's frustrating -.-
