Depends on what your scale is. Can you drive with nothing but your demon eyes on? Of course not. Will they illuminate your garage when you drive in at night? Yes. Can you see them in broad daylight from far away...? Oh yeah.

Here is a pic of them on my car the other day, broad daylight. Mine is the black car on the right.



Thanks all

Why would you want to remove them? Just install the HID kit in without even taking your headlights off (We offer the HID kit, too )

Chris,
They are normally wired up either to trigger when the ignition is turned on, but you can either put in a switch or wire the trigger wire to another 12V power source (for instance parking lights), so they go on when that power source is active.
Most customers install them to be on whenever the car is on, because once you see them you'll want them on at all times, too.

Poison - Can you show me a link? I'm not really familiar with Xenith, I think they're an Xtec knockoff, but I'd like to see the kit before I answer the question.

Thanks
JL

Poison:
I typically avoid "comparing" our product with that of our competitors like I avoid the black plague. It's just bad business and always leads to "ours is better, theirs stinks" type arguments. Instead, I will tell you what our product features and you can make the comparison without my biased inputs
-Hardware rarely varies in HIDs, they all look and connect pretty much the same
-Our product is tested and trusted - this is the 7th HID kit we've tested, and over the last 2 years it has become the only one we'll sell.
-Why? Because it has SUPERIOR light output, excellent reliability, and quality components. One customer's front bumper splash guard broke on his HIDs, and the ballast fell out. It was still connected, so it dragged along the freeway at 80mph for 2 hours... and was still working when he arrived at his destination. The cover was beat to hell, but the HID system was FINE

-It comes with a LIFETIME warranty. No questions asked
-It comes with printed instructions
-It comes with industry leading customer service



nomis_nehc:
There are TONS of installers in San Diego, but most of them will want $150 to bake a set of headlights. This is why we recommend you do it with some friends on a saturday afternoon at a leisurely pace - but it really is your choice.


Out list of installers, again, is found here:
http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=229339

"Search Thread" and type in San Diego, you'll find 2-3 guys in your area.

Anyone have an answer for me?

remember you can reduce your chances of a ticket if you retro fit your headlights. so just throwing a hid kit in there will blind other drivers too.


jlevi

is their any other type of sealeant you guys use to prevent condensation. because sometimes headlights dont seal properly after rebaking them


also why are you guys using ballast just for halos??
