i think the car would look 100X better if u put hids in the fogs too IMO but thats wat i did for now did xenon bulbs in teh headlights and fogs looks really good, and then when its partially dark out turn on teh fogs and no headlights woo looks so freaking hot and people just stare

I guess i will represent for the "Mercury Followers". The reason everyone is turning their necks, is probably due to the amount of glare that is blinding their eyes.

Plug and plays are not your friends! They look good behind the wheel, but go stand infront of your car at night, from 25 feet away. Your reflector in that headlight gives no direction on where the hell the light output should go.

I agree, they look good but aren't that safe for other drivers. I'm not bashing, but when i go HID, it will be when i get projector housings. And am i the only one that would rather have like 3800K bulbs for HID?

you dont have to mod your projectors... what ever vendor on here that has the 200$ sale going on has H1 hids... no mods needed.

Scooty ur hids arent blinding (ive seen them in person). ive seen more blinding lights on expensive suvs, like escalades that sit so high in the air. . .ive seen several sets of aftermarket, plug and play HIDs that had beautiful cut off lines in the beam pattern(in a stock halogen headlight housing), however, ive also seen some sets that arent friendly to other drivers. . .just be careful of what you install, cause headlights is one of those things other drivers interact with as much as you do. . .

100% Agreed. The more glare that you have, the more likely you are to be pulled over by a cop. I think they look good, but aren't the safest for EVERYone.
