I got rid of the 8000k HID set and decided to get a complete PIAA ION Yellow set to match the ones I have in my VRD Foglights... One of my PolarG parking lights also burned out in the highbeam's, so I replaced those as well with the PIAA ION's... It's REALLY yellow ... I wasn't sure at first if I was going to like it, especially with the price tag on the H11's ... Check them out, I think it turned out pretty sweet ...






Ignore the clear bulbs in the H3's, those are the ones that came with the VRD's

I'm happy with the way everything turned out ...

 

Call NORAD. See if they're aware of any top secret aircrafts flying tonight...

 

Haha, ya the dark pictures with the yellow lights does look freaky... My camera sucks too, really need to buy a new one... I thought it might be something different, not too many tC's I've seen like this, or any car for that matter... I got bored with the HID's, I may throw them up here and sell them in the future, still thinking about that though...

 

Doesn't look like the light output is strong enough to see ahead of you while driving...LoL...

Can U see ahead of you while driving??

 

well...the temp is probably around the 2500k range so output is reduced. i also had a similar setup before and it worked out fine. i pesronally find it harder to see with 7000-8000k lights...

 

Yep, it's just as good as normal halogen lamps... They are 55w each, also like normal halogen bulbs... It's nowhere near what my 8000k HIDs were, but it's just as good as factory intensity... Also, like I said, my camera really sucks ...

 

Ya, they are exactly 2500k... I got sick of the HID's because every freaking car in my area with an aftermarket HID set had 8000k bulbs... It was starting to get really played out, and 4300k is a factory color... So I went down to 2500k ...

 

cool idea...props on buying the best quality bulbs you can get though!!

 

Thanks, they hit the wallet nicely too... The Fogs were $56.00, the 168/194's were $16.00, and the H11's I saw in the store for $90.00 - but I got them on Amazon for ~$60.00... The whole kit was about $132.00-ish, that's a lot for halogen's ...

 

Looks cool, the fogs and parking lights are cool the headlights are over doing it imo. I remember when honda's and acura's used to rock those yellow headlight bulbs, that was a while back though. Good thing you dont live in Cali, otherwise you'd be pulled over almost instantaneously lol.

 

^Hmmm, that's interesting... I didn't think the yellow ones would be illegal... I passed by a few cops tonight, they didn't seem to mind, and cops over here get you for anything...

 

i never had any problems with cali cops with regards to my old headlights lol. i just didnt have fogs. anyways it probably depends on the individual officer... im rockin PolarG 5000k "shining wizards" right now. lol kinda grew out of the "JDM" style but my highs are still 2500k yellow

 

good luck gettin pulled over!! how much did all that run you? i went to a place that rang up the piaa's h3 yellow bulbs you got, he said that'll be $88 and i laughed out loud and walked out

 

i love it!!!

you won't get pulled over with those lights

 

Why not just get 3k HID bulbs?

 

 

I dunno... It was a cheaper route for similar results each HID bulb is $99 from my brand (Xetronic) -> http://www.xtralights.com/index.asp?...ROD&ProdID=130 ... I may do that in the future, I still have great Digital Ballasts just need the 3k Bulbs... This will do for now

 

I hope not, lol... I passed by a few cops the last couple nights and they didn't do anything... Hopefully it stays that way too

 

it looks nice I like the whole yellow theme a lot. and yea 3k hids woulda been good, I can get 3k bulbs for 40 bucks

 

How good are they though?... I bought HID bulbs in that price range once and they lasted not even 6 months before the capsule turned all black and wouldn't start anymore... The one's I just took out I had for almost a year, and they're great, the capsules aren't even cloudy...
