Yes it will. Except how ever they are annoying to on coming traffic. I used to have 6000K Japanese HIDs with high and low beam. Took them out as they were too bright as i got flashed all the time and plus its cop bait.
Otherwise they are quite nice.

Thalmes · 08-07-2010, 10:03 PM

I'm currently using the 6000k hid . I am currently lowering the angle of it so it won't blind . I've seen worse on the streets ... Like purple and blue .

johannari · 08-07-2010, 10:46 PM

8000k and never had no problems :)

lunjiaow · 08-08-2010, 12:36 AM

Yeah the purple and blueish ones are most likely to be projectors with standard bulbs. So how are the 6000K on yours? Its good cause it lights up the road, but i've had trouble when its raining/foggy or just after it rains, massive glare from the road.

Lucas13 · 08-08-2010, 01:35 AM

I have on mine 6000k Bi-xenon, I lowered them and they work pretty straight, almost no glare, I dissembled the mechanic bulbs and pulled the spring a little bit so the bulbs sit more into the shield, this helps reducing the glare, its possible to see the light cut in half on the headlight lens.

Probably soon I will change my bulbs for 5000k for more OEM look.

spookz · 08-08-2010, 04:20 AM

I run 4300K Bi-Xenons for the OEM look. I've never been flashed.. Difference is day and night!

Thalmes · 08-08-2010, 08:21 AM

Lunjiaow : It is all right overall but I'm kinda pissed off cause I kinda lost my ability for the high beam as my HID kits only offers low beam ... It is bright enough but the lights are scattered around the sides ... Making it hard to see . It is good on straight roads as I can see a lot though . Might be considering reverting back to H4 ... Am currently looking at Phillips Xtreme Power ...

Spookz : What kind of bulbs are those ? Just halogen bulbs ?

H4 bulbs usually come with both low and high beam or not ? When I took out my Yaris's stock bulb yesterday , the high and low beam are together.

big lo · 08-08-2010, 02:28 PM

HID kits comes with both high & low beams, have you checked the MI products? The price is right and the quality is off the hook.

lunjiaow · 08-08-2010, 07:19 PM

Yes H4 standard globes come with high and low beam. There are two types of kits you can get. One with low beams or one with high/low beams. High/low beams generally cost more.
I would just leave it with standard lights or replace with some phillips globes.

lunjiaow · 08-08-2010, 07:20 PM

That photo looks nice spooks.

So hows your car anyway... any updates on it?

Thalmes · 08-08-2010, 08:46 PM

Yeah , mine is only the low beam ...

Am waiting for my Phillips globe now ...

spookz · 08-09-2010, 05:17 PM

Haha thanks, they are HIDs.

Thalmes · 08-11-2010, 08:16 AM

Oh , They are HIDs ... You changed the bulb into a smaller kelvin ?

spookz · 08-21-2010, 02:01 AM

4,300K is kelvin all OEM HID systems use. It real life it's like a warm white, which lights up the road really well.
