Sorry for being a little off topic, but snakes have you had any problems with cops and your underglow? Is that even legal here in nova scotia?

I had a it on a few times while driving, never had a issue. Only time a cop botherd me was when i was waiting to pick my gf up from work. Was in a parkinglot, parked and a cop comes up and yells at me to turn it off and said it was illegal. I told him i was parked and i was allowed to have it. He then said "if u move 1 foot with that on ill give you a $400 ticket" He then went and tried to hide on the other side of the parking lot to wait for me. He then left and waited on the road outside but when i left i didnt have it on. From what i was told by other police. Blue is not allowed at all, red is not allowed in the front, but you can have any other color you want. In NB, there is no law of the color, just as long as its not strobing.

you have garbage ones that sometime both dont turn on, the ones at glubes are better then what you buy for many reasons.
one if you think about it you paid $120 for a low beam, hes paying 199.99 for a high and low.
2 your ballse is HUGE!, RTX ones are small and easy to hide.
your igniter is int he ballse so when the igniter goes you have to replace the ballis aswell.

04ioncoupe, when it comes to buying HID's the good ones are not cheap!
i only ever had one issue with mine, and that was the helogen burnt out, and i got a new one for warentee stay away from the ones in the red box with chinesse/japanese wrighting on them

the rule of HID's from what my box says is the brightest bulb you can buy is the 4,500k, when you go 5k, 6k, 8k, 10k, all what happens is the color changes.
i had people behind me with 4300k hid's and i find theirs brighter then the 10k
