My Review of OPT7 HID xenon kit with pics inside - Toyota Yaris Forums

YarisSedan · 05-17-2013, 08:30 PM

So I purchased this kit on ebay. The seller has a good reputation and is local in San Jose. Shipping took only a day to get. The quality of the kit looks very well and the color range was true to chart. I was looking for 500k easy plug in play bi xenon bulbs that were able to turn the hids on and off and switch the normal and it was exactly what I hoped to get.

For the price of 35 shipped to your door its a insanely good deal. Here is a link to the ebay auction if you are interested.

And pictures of the results. Left is the hid and right is stock. You can tell its a pure white no blue tint which is what i was hoping for in the 500k range. Has oem look.

working well?

YarisSedan · 06-24-2013, 12:04 AM

Yeah so far so good no issues yet and color is still true to the day i installed them

catliektheif · 06-24-2013, 01:05 AM

this looks awesome! but isnt it dangerous/illegal to have hids with the factory housing because the light scatters? just wondering cause im definitely interested.

bladesmith6 · 06-24-2013, 09:48 PM

I'm pretty sure it is illegal not to mention incredibly rude to oncoming traffic. Hid in projector housings or not at all.

jetaimejsc · 07-05-2013, 11:30 PM

Just wondering how these are running. Anyone flash you yet? Any night shots?

YarisSedan · 07-05-2013, 11:54 PM

Havent been flashed yet and have been working fine so far

ApolloJA · 09-22-2013, 10:05 PM

Just my little review on this product
Bought these and after 2 months one stopped working so i took em out.
Thought it might have been the bulb that blew but when i went in to check it it shocked the hell out of me! :|

TOLMACH · 10-10-2013, 12:30 AM

Any updates from the OT?

Thanks

Thinking about buying this kit one

I had a kit very similar to this in my car several years ago.

My advice: don't do it. Even if other people aren't flashing you, you're definitely throwing a lot more light in their face than you normally would be.

HID without projectors is a huge waste. Comparing what mine used to look like with HIDs in the regular housings vs the projectors I got from TRS, there's a world of difference. Projectors are the way to go with HID.

malibuguy · 10-10-2013, 07:23 PM

I used to have hi/lo HIDs as well...I now run high watt halogens with a relay harness and the light output is stellar.

I want to change my old headlamp with oem led, does this legal? I saw many guys did this with cool led headlight.I have recently been researched many headlights, also many people recommended to me the opt7. Now I have two choice opt7 fluxbeam 3500 size h11 http://www.amazon.com/OPT7-Headlight.../dp/B00VNBDWPK and broview v8 http://www.amazon.com/BROVIEW-Headli...eadlight+Bulbs. Did anyone used opt7 fluxbeam 3500? it really can last 2 year?

Installing projectors will make a lot of difference + you're not going to blind anyone. Once you go projectors you can't go back
