^^ Do they make any aftermarket HID housings for older RX-7's?

I don't think anyone does for the original pop ups on the FC or FD...... but I am sure some that offer the flush mount setups can be had with actual HID housings

This is a guess, as all i have is a sweet sealed beam conversion

I wanted to convert my pickup to HID's because one of my headlight brackets is broke.... but after reading up, and seeing the joke of them i declined

Now I feel bad for having HIDs. But, in my defense, I have gone to a parking lot when it is pitch black and then turned them on and stood in front of the car. I checked almost every angle and could stare at them no problem. It does indeed depend on the housing. It helps that mine have caps over the end of the bulbs and a black housing around the sides of the reflector.

I've seen plenty of HID setups where yes they "put out more light", but then again it puts it out only half the distance of my "shitty" Sliverstars... I've ridden in a few cars with HIDs that you couldnt see for shit what was coming up on the road.

you couldnt be more wrong. Have you done any research on this at all? Reflector style housings are designed to work with a certain light output. If you flood the housing with light its going to reflect in every direction instead of the one its meant to.

Does it feel like you are pounding your head into the brick wall over and over again and yet nothing changes?

that would make sense being as hid's can put out as much as 3x more light. Is the road 3 times brighter? Where do you think the rest of that light goes?

So joel, did you research on how HID's work yet?

[Joel]

disabled my auto headlights by putting a resistor in the harness where the photocell for the lights would plug in. the drls still work. I decided to buy ricer 2500k halogen bulbs instead of HIDs. just soyou guys won't bitch.

I'll still probably do HIDs. Found the dirty yellow 2500ks on ebay for 17 bucks before I knew I could turn off my auto headlights tho, so I just ordered them.
