When you unplugged your halogen bulb, the connector should have 3 wires in it.. is this what you are talking about?

i think this is when a relay comes into play.im assuming the yellow is the accessory wire which runs 10v "which cause the flicker" until u actually turn ur headlights on for it to run 12v...

this is the reason why i dont have hid on the headlight yet..

Sure no name calling is a good policy, but I can understand sophies frustration, the guy was giving bad advice and when called on it acted like was still an expert instead of admitting his ignorance. I would be pissed too!

I love how some expensive, luxury cars have that bright, pure white light. I am a newbie, and I don't make a lot of money either so for me to go after HID is a bit over my price range. But, I searched for a way to get the same effect without an expensive modification,
I found these bulbs online from an eBay salesman that had some pretty good reviews.


Purchased for 16$
And went to my Mechanic to install the bulbs, he did it for 10$ so I tipped him too.




My headlights were kinda dirty when I took the pictures but as you can see I got that white look that I so desired. All for just under 30$.
I wouldn't say that they are a lot brighter but then again I live in NYC and brightness was not what I was looking for.

*As a side note, there are small lamps on the side of the headlights that are still yellow, does anyone know what kind of bulbs they are? and where to get white or blue colored bulbs to replace?

You shouldve gotten the HID kits ... I spent $110 for both headlights n foglights off eBay . It's brighter than my benzo's light. Don't forget to get something that closer to the 4300k range because if it's higher than that it'll be darker on the road.

I Found it!! they are the same as the interior spotlights and those small little headlight bulbs.
I just went to Strauss and they helped me get blue ones. THey had 2 brand, since i needed 2 sets i got both of them the collor is a little diffrent between them. Which do you guys/girls think looks better on the exterior and interior? here are some pics.

one is really blue and the other is more like white-purple blue.


A bit hard to see on pictures, camera makes it look very similar but once you see it with your eyes you can clearly see the difference.
