Who is familiar with Xenon Lights? I would really like Xenon in a Crossfire.

 

If you're referring to High Intensity Discharge (HID) lighting, they're already available It will run you about $1,000. Search the web (google for "H-7 HID") -- there are about a million places that will sell them.

 

$1000?

Less then half for good (same as OEM manufacturers) kits from McCulloch, Philips, Hella, etc...

 

i have them on my crossfire. a must have imo. i can now see at night.

i purchased my "plug & play" hid kit on ebay. the cost was $300.

you'll need "H7" kit. i am using an 8000k bulb. bmw & audi factory hid's are about 4700k. (this determines the blueness of the lighting....higher the # bluer the color). a McCulloch kit (made in germany) is what i recommend. if i could go back and reorder...i would select a 6000k kit. the 8000k kit is a bit more blue than your average factory hid's.

here is the ebay link & the user i purchased mine from...

Is it for both lights or just the regular driving light.

what is it like on high beam?

 

You can have HID in any light, low-high-fogs.
The only problem with HID in fogs is that we have the auto turn on thing when you close the door and you had the lights on before, I´ve been told that is not good for HID (turn on and off quickly-frequently), so I decided to uninstall my fogs as I was having problems with them. (want to ask the dealer if they can turn off that feature as I they looked awesome)
The low lights look great and highly recommended, if you want also high beams, you can do it too, I didn´t do it as when having HID in low ones, you don´t use them that much, but it's up to you!

I now have a question for the forum:
I am installing my HID's again as I got them replaced, does anybody know which is the positive and which the negative to install bulbs? (I can't remember)
I searched on the forum and found:
DFWSBR said: 2 wire side = - and 1 wire side = +
but then NJSPEED69 said: -THE SIDE WITH TWO WIRES IS THE POSITIVE.
So that is confusing and one of them should be wrong.
All of you who have HID installed and have had no problems so far, which is the right polarity?
Thank you!

 

I have HID and I constantly have people blinking there lights at me. Mine are set to only one setting and that is High Beam. Does anyone else see this as an issue, even though its totally legal?

 

One question:
You have your HID installed in high beams? So when you turn on your low beams, there is no HID but when you use your high beams, you have HID?
If it is like that, then yes you have them in high beam, if not, that means that when you turn on your lights (no high beams) you have HID on (so that is low beam). All you have to do is align your lights.
Cheers!

 

How to align. I don't have any low beam, its just high beam.

 

Did you install the HID's in the outer (low beam) or inner (high beam) positions. All cars have low beams. Make sure the bulbs are installed correctly. If they aren't the low beams will act like high beam to on coming traffic. There is a headlight aiming procedure in the owners manual. If you can figure it out.

 

The Crossfire has high beam and low beam in separate bulbs, if you install HID, you either install in high or low, or in both (2 hid kits). What happens in cars that have high and low beams in the same bulb, is that when you install HID, you lose your high beam which doesn't happen in the Crossfire.
So by saying you don't have a low beam and just high beam, I guess you mean that your low beam is so high that is looks like a high beam and everybody blinks their lights at you. As I said before, the thing to do is aiming your lights the proper way. It is stated in the user's manual, if you can't find it you can search in the forums, I remember some posts about it with helpful links like this one: http://www.advanceautoparts.com/engl...0010801ha.html.
You can also do a search online.

 

Just ordered my 6000K kit! Can't wait for it to come! Thanks for the pictures and the advice!

Hey Kyle,

Who'd you order them from & how much? Can I come over and observe (help) when you put them in?

 

Oh yeah definitely, send me your cell # and I'll call you when I get them in. I got them off ebay for $289.00 free shipping. My dad is going to be putting a set into his NSX as well. Here is the link to check them out.
