question on headlights.

obviously this chick wants em cuz she wants blue head lights, not because she wants more output.
"get the kid a fucking happy meal"
I believe she is refering to HID's. H4 Conversion plus HID kit

i looked at the hid's there what i'm looking for. out put is not a concern for me i want them for the look. you all know they look sweet lol. i tried the silver stars in it and they didn't make a difference for seeing compared to the old ones i had in there. (Just so there is no mix up i know there not blue just in case you think im a ditz lol) I just like the way they look.

properly aimed hella E-code lights will not blind anyone. I imported european spec halogen projectors from the Audi RS2 for my old car and the european sharp cutoff is a fantastic beam pattern.
If euro lamps are installed in proper buckets they are both LR and UP/DN adjustable and should NOT blind anybody. Daniel Stern (who knows everything there is to know about automotive lighting) has the e-code aiming instructions on his web page.

I would suggest that somebody NOT retrofit HIDs into thier car unless they find a new lens and lamp housing specifically made for an HID style bulb. Not doing so will produce poor lighting and blind oncoming traffic.
Currently I've only seen one product that claims to be a true HID bulb that fits in an a halogen bulb base. I have no idea if this product is worth a damn or not since the way light escapes a HID bulb is entirely different than how light leaves physical-filament halogen bulbs. The lamp optics and bulb mounting must be designed entirely around the design of the bulb in order for things to line up properly.

and they DO make HIDS for your car! I sell them.

because you care about function over rice?
because you know that putting the wrong headlights in a car for looks reason certainly affects the "look" of your ride.... as in if people notice it at all, you look like a dumbass?let's review:
- putting in poorly engineered lights doesn't make your visibility any better
- it makes driving worse for everyone else
- it costs money
what's the upside? do you have a plastic scrotum hanging out of your truck trailer hitch also?
