I did a writeup and provided vendors.

A memeber used the Rikens and was happy with the kit.

I used to vender Maxcichon recommended and have been very pleased.

Re: HID suggestions
 

I just found a seller that had the H7's and 9006's in the same temp. I have a different companies H9, and H11's on the zx14. All four sets were around the same amount, and look very close in color. the two sets for the crossfire came from flashplus, and were definately plug in play, no splicing of wires, or drilling holes in the grommet to run the two wires back through. Max, has that process written indetail in his write up. It will definately help you. chris

Who is the vendor?

Re: HID suggestions
 

i think he is referring to this guy http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/flashp...Q_fromZQQ_mdoZ

Re: HID suggestions
 

The picture of the kit was just a generic red box that says$61.99 shipped by DHL. Right now it is the second one down, if you search for h7 hid kits, on ebay, not ebay motors. chris

Re: HID suggestions
 

yes the box looked identicle to the ones I ordered. I would recommend doing lowbeams and foglights at the same time. Trying to mix and match colors with hid's doesn't work well, and this way you'll get the same color.

Re: HID suggestions
 

so order 4300k fogs?

Re: HID suggestions
 

your choice as far as color goes. I went 6000k for both sets. You'll likely get a little more light with the 4300k, But I would keep them the same color as the lowbeams. with any hid swap, your going to get alot of light, compared to stock.

Re: HID suggestions
 

Had an interesting situation the other night. HIDs installed, I had my lights on. i switched them off for a second then back on. one light was out. (btw, the bulb out lit in the dash). i thought, dang i haven't even had them installed for a month yet. i turned the lights back off and on again, now both were out. off/on again, 1 was out and one was on. turned the lights off and sat there for a few minutes then turned them on again. both were lit and they've been fine ever since.

i read somewhere that this was normal because HIDs are not made to be switched on and off and this is why they should not be used for high beams. is this the case or is it just my cheap kit - which otherwise has been great.

how have they preformed for those that have installed them on high beams and fogs since both of them switch on/off.

Re: HID suggestions
 

I was just about to buy one of those sets on your list when I saw that the shipping price had jumped by $30, be careful and check before committing.

Re: HID suggestions
 

HELP i was trying to thread the wires through the clip and the clip came out? what do i do?

Re: HID suggestions
 

Do you still have the clip?

Re: HID suggestions
 

yes i do i'm trying to take the headlight out now my big hands just cant do this install with them in ..

Re: HID suggestions
 

Use a needle nosed pliers to re-attach the clip. I suppose you were following either my directions or the other for the HID install, so we're to blame.

Let us know how you're doing-I'll keep an eye on this thread.

Good luck!

Re: HID suggestions
 

Easy as pie just took the headlight and that made it so easy 2 easy bolts on top pop one torx screw out of the fender well and get the 1st on the bottom and then yes get then 2nd one of the bottom from up top or bottom....

Now another question i have to like red lines when my hid are on did i touch them or what is that...

Re: HID suggestions
 

If you mean a line on the pavement in front of your car, this is normal. It is the shadow made from the support post inside the capsule.

Good to know you got them out. Too bad you needed to!

Re: HID suggestions
 

Thanks alot man and yeah just for me it was alot easier to do them with the healight out i'm gonna post a few pics tonight hopfully with lights on..
