Default Xenon Headlights Question

What is a High/Low Bi-xenon kit? is one for your highbeams and the other for your regular lights? Is it worth it to get both? Is 8000K too bright for the crossfire and will it cause radio interferance?

I was looking at these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/H7-80...QQcmdZViewItem

It looks as though the "Hi-Low" kit (+$75) is what you want. Call them.

As for the 8K color, it will be a very blue/purple color. Too much IMHO.

i like the 8k's blueness,i went with hid's in the low beam and fogs,the fact that it takes a little while to fully light up the bulbs kind of limits the ability to quickly hit or flash the high-beams, and i think the one on top of the other gives it a wicked street tuner look.

I just talked with the fine folks at the web site you listed. He told me that anything over 8000k is not street legal. And the purple lights are over 8000k.
However, the only places he has heard of anyone having issues with the law is along the upper east coast. He also said I would need 2 kits to do both the hi and the low.

That kit is expensive and hasn't been tested with the crossfire. Go with this guy that everyone is going with... http://motors.search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZhidgate

I just installed two from him.
