HIDS Came in today :)

Ordered these kits from www.vvme.com and they got here in four days. Hopefully the lights are as quality as their customer service.

Do those say 9007? Oh god.. please.. do other drivers a favour and ask the seller for a return or do an exchange for one of the projector-type bulbs.. and then grab some projectors. You're going to blind everyone in oncoming traffic.

Hey i just ordered mine, but i got the 10k ones, Hopefully they arrive Monday!


For all the haters, they dont make ugly ass projectors with little gay ass LED lights in them for Ions, and im not a ricer who puts colored bulbs in my car either, im sure if aimed right they will be fine.

im not saying hes wrong, i agree with him. but everytime a thread like this starts people just bitch and moan about it like the op cares or something, because if he did he wouldnt have ordered them in the first place.

as long as u agree with him. i just think its kind of disrespecting the other drivers on the road.

But they say it for a reason lol. If someone wanted to put a 150 dry shot on an LS u would inform them tht it would be unwise. So... Im just informing. he can still return them...

Not disrespecting anyone here, or anyone that has them, But unless I want to do a retrofit ( and i don't have the time ) then guess what , I have to buy some ugly ass alien looking projectors. With proper aiming they'll be fine. I don't see what the big deal is anyway.. if you're not staring dead into someones headlights you dont really have to worry about it.

An0malous might be gone... but the HID crew is still alive.

OP, ask for a return... HID's in the stock housings are retarded and dangerous.
For those that think that they don't blind people... PFO!
Just the other night I was blinded by two dumb effin retards with HID's in their reflectors...

Oh... and for the record... please click on the blue link in my sig.
After reading, you'll probably understand why a PnP kit was a bad idea.

Ehh im not a fan of HID's in stock housings but I guess its your car. Also, putting hids in your fogs is pretty much just for looks, they are no longer going to function like fog lights.

And for the guy saying he isnt a ricer with leds and colored lights. You do realize 10k is pretty much useless for light output right? All 10k does is give you a deep ass blue light, so you spent your money for some blue lights, good job!

our cars dont have fog lights, they are driving lights. fog lights are yellow, and i know are illegal for on highway use in canada.

i have the same brand hid's in my driving lights, 8000k, they work great. had em for a couple months with no issues, i have a friend selling those kits through his work and has sold tons with only a couple problems, naimly dead bal;asts right out of the box and they get replaced without issue
