This is a question for you guys about H.I.D. conversion kits...Guys who have HID on their cars, it would be greatly appreciated if you chimed in on this too.

I'm getting the JDM Cedia lights for my Lancer. And if I'm gonna do that, I gotta do the HID. I'm not clueless on HID, but need some input before I buy a set.

I was referred to http://www.xenondepot.com. I'm actually thinking of buying a set from them if I save enough $$$ for it. I'm not putting my headlights on till Spring, and I have the whole little bit of Fall and all of Winter to save up.

Now on the site...it has 6000k kits running for $549 and the 8000k kits go for $349. The 6000k kits are more expenisve because it uses brand name PHILIPS BALLASTS. Now... isn't the general rule on HIDS the brighter the better? So should I go for the 8000k or save up a bit more for the 6000k kit?

Also if u guys know any other places that sell HIDs for cheaper, that would help a bunch too!

 

yeh Im in the same boat as you Im getting the Cedia headlights too and I HAVE to get HID's with em!. I saw a guy on here that sells em for around 300 I believe and he gives a discount for using Joe for the headlights. But I'm still trying to shop around to see if I can find some cheaper

 

I don't believe that you HAVE to get HID's, it just looks a lot better.

 

Where are you guys getting the cedia housing from?

 

drummerjun is doing a buy on them

joseph k - CONTACT drummerjun a.s.a.p.
supposedly this is his last time selling these lights to us

 

You don't have to get the HIDs but THEY LOOK SO FREAKIN HOT WITH THEM ON. i dunno, slappin some "hyper-whites" on a nice JDM part like that is like murder.

 

Whoa, not worth it for me. I will not be upgrading to HID so the Cedia lights do not serve a $300 purpose. They are nice though. I am just going to diy black on the OEM lights.

 

i have both cedia black house and HID's phillips is a good brand to go with..but 549 for 6000k is a little much...if your guys are really interested shoot me a line as i can get 6000k either mculloch or phillips i think( last time i checked) for ~320 shipped 2 day express...
...
as for the brighter the better well that would be up to you...the higher the temp the more blue the tint is

 

No no no I am not saying you have to get em but I feel that if you get the housings might as well go get HID. But im not saying its required.

Sorry for the misunderstanding,

Peace

 

OK, yeah, I'm gonna try and get them as soon as I can, but I have a bit o' debt to handle first. But I completely agree the HID's will do soooo much better in the cedia housings

 

Yup I can't wait to get mine now

 

yes is this marques houston site before i start asking questions? please email lasondraperry@yahoo.com and let me know thanks!

 

^^am I just really tired, or does that not make sense to anyone else?
