My HIDs

I figured i post how my hids look.

Enjoy. O and i always keep my light switch on so i don't worry about DRL and once i shut off my car and open the door the lights shut off anyways so it works great .

How's the distance lighting now? I always feel like the stock headlights don't give me very much distance.

So are you using one of those conversion HID kits or are you doing the foglight switch thing? I'm just interested because I would like HID's but I only have an ES unlike a GTS that comes with fogs.

i have a hid kit on both my low beems and on my fog lights. To avoid the flashing lights due to DRL i just turn on my lights as soon as i get into my car. and i would press the button to turn on my fog lights.

do you have a day shot of your lights. If you have to leave them on all the time it would be nice to see what they look like during the day.

Man thats a lot of glare alright Wish we had projector housings. Also why didnt you just use a relay to switch the DRL's to your sidemarker lights instead of leaving them on all the time?

Probably because it's WAAAAY easier to just leave them on. It's just a simple flick of the knob. Beats the Hell out of spending an afternoon wiring...

Well it probably would take close to an entire day if i did it. I'm going to try and get an audio store to do it. Cause when I get my remote starter, I dont want the HID's coming on when the thing starts up my car.
