Default H I D LIGHT UPGRADE RESULTS AND PICS

Hello, this is for all the people who want to see the difference these gas discharge lites really make compared to standard bulbs in the scooby headlights as i fitted a set for a friend earlier this week.
You really need to drive with these lights to appreciate them fully.
This is the kit available from tony booth at the moment, Im ordering my set asap.
Pm me if you want any more info............





cheers mark

they look like dodgy blue tinted bulbs not like proper HIDs, way too blue in my opinion, they should be white like dayloght with a hint of blue in the same way that my autolamps 4200k kit are.

I presume these are those 8000k asian imports?

also, what does it matter what the car looks like, I thought you were going to put up pictures from inside the car as that is what lighting is all about, visibility, not styling!

Different colour temperature bulbs are available. Those are the 8000K ones which have a bluer appearance, but having tried all the different colour temps. I personally prefer the 8000K as they give the optimum reflection. The 6000K are a good compromise. Personally I don't think the 4200K are effective enough.

(Thanks for the piccies Mark)

Cheers

There is no pleasing everybody!!!!!!
I had to remove one side to put the standard bulb back in just to take the pics!
You wouldnt see the difference with a camera from inside the car, That is why i said you have to drive on them to expierience them.
Also they are not your asian import rubbish, They are a high quality kit from America.
thanks mark
