SW_08 04-16-2008, 04:23 AM i think you can..... datdude1119 04-16-2008, 06:29 AM i am pretty sure u can. as long as the bulbs are the same wattage UNiT_xEr0 04-16-2008, 06:33 AM yeah they should work. the only problem i would consider is what kinda ballast do you have? i tried 3bspec bulbs on crap ballast and they didnt work SW_08 04-17-2008, 12:15 AM did you try it yet???? a_german_named_hans 04-17-2008, 12:56 AM I'm curious too. I figure you should be able to. Was thinkin about getting some extra bulbs just in case. Maybe a set of 8K to switch it up a little. SW_08 04-17-2008, 12:58 AM i have eight and i love it..... rocketpants 04-17-2008, 01:23 AM on a related note, what about bulb sizes? I currently have a 9006 fitment hid (8000k) but I want to switch to H1 bulbs (for a projector)... do i have to buy a brand new kit? or just new bulbs? a_german_named_hans 04-17-2008, 01:24 AM just new bulbs. all HID bulbs use the same two plugs. What is it. The yellow and the blue right? muuunkeeyy_ 04-17-2008, 01:26 AM well i i guess i will stick to my 5k. lol its just like wow..blue T_T i seen all these people with blue lights and i know its hids. u look at mine and its just white. it just looks like a beamer or something. T_T stock a_german_named_hans 04-17-2008, 01:28 AM ^^ yea. I hate the really blue look. I think it looks gross. I like the straight up white, just a tiny hint of blue. Looks cleaner imo. operatic 04-17-2008, 01:34 AM right now i have some 5000k hids. i was wondering if i could just buy the 10000k bulbs and stick it into my ballast. will it be safe and not melt my wires? just a question. As long as you buy bulbs that have the same type of connectors as your old HID bulbs do then you'll be fine. UNiT_xEr0 04-17-2008, 02:54 AM yeah some certain HID kits the plugs are different. xentech with 3bspec HID bulbs didnt work with me. jrtlighting 04-17-2008, 03:55 AM Yes most of the aftermarket HID bulbs are interchangeable with the ballast. If you have a set of existing HID all you need is a new pair of bulbs (regardless of size/"k") if will fit If any of you guys are interested in some special HID colors to show off in auto show or just to have fun with it in fog lights, we carry Yellow, pink, Green and purple color HIDs!!!
