I have been running the MOBILEHID 6K kit from Clifford for a month now and have had only one person flash me...Ive got the Hi/Low beam too so when I did get flashed I let them have it with high beam...Go for it CL65Pilot...

 

Okay, after the trip I can say I was wrong about the scatter. I was lighting up construction barrels on the opposite side of traffic about 75ft away. I did get flashed by 2 truckers (that were behind me) as I passed them, so I guess I lit up their side view mirrors really good.

 

Looks like it'll be a no-go for me due to the light scatter issue and lack of a defined cutoff... I'll keep saving for that retrofit!

 

Hi uskrewed, sorry for the trouble, the cutoff is different in different cars even as we adjust the beam for the bulbs, if you are able to lower your headlight slighter downward, then it shouldn't be a problem. Thanks~

HIDXTRA, What is the truth to the wiring relay harness? I hear that you don't need them, but it is a good idea. I would rather be safe than sorry, but just fill me in a little on the details of that please?

 

Since scion cars have original halogen headlights, the wire relay harness gives a consistent 12v power to your ballasts to prevent flickering for most american cars like dodge, for scion cars, it is NOT needed, but some customers have gotten the flickering issue, not many though, therefore we don't send relays unless we have experience with your model type.

Basically, if the HID kit lights don't flicker in your car, then you don't need it.

thanks!

She drives a 2006 Audi A4 and the ballast is a 35watt, we did have a new revelation the other day though... the switch in the A4 to turn the headlights on also has the fog lights switch built into it... If you turn on the headlights and then turn on the fog lights the flickering stops...

 

All Audi cars also need a special wire that will bypass the computer so error message won't occur, it will also steady the signal.

Thanks~

 

Pointed the lights down and angled them inwards as well and the scatter is tons better and no one flashed me, but now it's not as bright (obviously) Angling them in was a real hassle, but I had my bumper off already so I ended up taking out the headlamps to adjust them.

P.S. you have to take off your bumper to get to 1 bolt on the headlamp, what's the deal with that? There's already 2 other bolts and 1 plastic retaining grommet so there really wasn't a need for the 3rd one, maybe it was just so they could charge more to replace a headlamp?

 

uskrewed: Did you get the Hi/Lo or the Bi-xenon kit?

 

H4 5000k Hi/Lo - I'm thinking I should have just put up the extra $15 and done the extra ~20 minutes of work for the bi-xenon because the high beams aren't much brighter than the los

 

Ya... I think I'm going to do that because the bulbs are completely different. I'm thinking the Bi-Xenon bulb, because of its design, would sit on the focal point better and produce a better beam pattern... but I could be wrong.

 

Hi,

For those who do more driving at night where there is less street light and fewer cars, I always recommend the Bi-xenon, because when you switch from low to high you won't get a color difference (from HID to halogen) which your eyes would need to suddenly adjust, and the original hid will just shift focus point to let you see farther out.

most of my customers who purchased the bi-xenon are astounded by how better they can see offroad also and it's worth the extra $$.

Then again, if you don't use High beam that often, then it's not needed.
It's on a as need basis.

THanks~

All order placed before 3pm PST yesterday have been shipped, Thank you!

 

Here is an example of our HID installed in a Halogen housing, the car is a 2000 Infiniti I30. The beam pattern is clean and does not scatter like other hid kits, and the projection area of visibility is similar just brighter so you can see better. Thanks~

P.S. beam may vary slightly upon different vehicles such as (YR make model and height, for examples for trucks or SUVs, the cutoff may be higher)

 

All orders placed before 3pm PST yesterday have been shipped and you should have already received a tracking #, if you didn't, please call 860-821-8212, your order might be delayed due to

HIDXTRA: Are there casper shields on the 5000K H4 Bi-Xenon bulbs? I cannot tell from the pictures...

 

Nevermind, I think I answered my own question. Looks like they do. Do you have them in OEM 4300K? I'm going for a stock look, or close to it.

 

Hi,

Yes the casper shields are built in for the bi-xenon

our closest color to oem is the 5000K
