Dude that just plain ROCKS!

Get rid of the orange reflectors, maybe paint the housing matte black (the stock reflector area looks kinda weird and unnecessary now)

No way in hell. Those guys really earn their money.

The diode is on the new harness - if your kit doesn't have another harness, you won't have a diode.

I'm a little disappointed in the cutoff on the lighting. There is some reflection off the little doohickeys that control the high beams but overall, not bad. What isn't so good is I have to be really careful switching from high to low beams - if it bumps through the low beam position to the flash to pass position; one or both lights go off! Also, the high beam indicator doesn't work because there is no feedback from the bulb. I can live with both, I just have to be very careful when switching from high to low.

Obviously projectors will beat an HID kit any day of the week assuming they're a good match to your style of car. Problem is the install is extremely tricky. Noobs who try this could be left with a horridly hacked stock headlight housing and no lights at all.

Be forewarned.

OxyG3nE · 04-08-2007, 03:04 PM

so i want HID kit but i wwant to know if it will blind everyone that i cross on the road and what K i should use to have the more white possible .. i dont want purple or blue

*Chris07LB* · 04-08-2007, 03:07 PM

4200k is what comes stock from every car/truck coming from the factory with HIDs.

Stay 6000k or below, and you will be getting the most usable light you can.

FYI - I've never been hassled or high beamed this whole time while driving with HIDs in my Yaris LB.
