Never liked HIDs on a non-HID car, while they look cool, they blind people and reduce your ability to see at night.

s15cbr you should really consider figuring out how to do vertical alignment on your car. it's as simple as turning a gear (usually a bolt) at the back of your headlight unit.

i installed my HIDs couple weeks ago and the glare really downgrades the quality of the ride.

HID is classy, glaring is not. good luck!

it was hard but we put one right behind the passenger side headlight theres a metal shelf that fits pretty nicely and the driver side was the hardest
we actually modified the fuse box and mounted it to the side of that
