HIDs are for "show purposes only" when sold in the Aftermarket therefore not street legal. The only time they are legal is when it come straight from the manufacturer. Will you be stopped, doubtful.

Also, get real HIDs, 1) because they emit more light 2) you won't look cheap, and you can tell the difference between the 2.

No, you can't.

Well, I suppose in most cases as long as they're unlit and hidden you can't really do anything about them, but if they're lit or even showing, you can get in trouble in many states.

Arcrist, those bulbs are junk. There have been many threads on this forum discussing bulbs like this. Bottom line: save your money and get either real HID or quality bulbs from Piaa, Sylvania, or Philips.

I bought a set of those for fun...guess what, they suck.
The sellers photoshop the color so they look like they are blue or purple.
In reality when you look at the front of your car with the lights on, its yellow.
The blue and purple show a little on the ground, but you actually lose light...
Save your money for Inn & Out.

Like I said I have 3 sets of the Diamond blue bulbs from: http://www.autolumination.com and I love them, they are bright, white/blue. I wouldn't say they are legal, but they aren't obviously illegal, they look like stock HID's. I have 55 watt lows, and 80 watt foglights. I love mine.

Yea on the left side of the blue boxed click headlights & foglights.

http://autolumination.com/headlights.htm

Then they have a bunch of lights, different parts and brands, any H7 will work. The stock is 55W so I recommend that so you don't possible screw you wiring up. H7 for highbeams too, and 9006 for foglights. I have the Excelites 55w diamond blue. $11.99. They have cheaper ones, depending on what color you want. The diamond blues light its nice, and if you look at the bulb/housing when lite it has a red tint to it. I like them, they are unique. But if you use foglights I'd say you have to match. Either get diamond blue or super white. There are like 10 brands on there that have the H7 and 9006. Just pick one you like.

Yea what you had is what I got. But like i said, even tho it says diamond blue, they have a red tint to them.
