Installed my 7500k HID kit

I installed the other night an HID kit on my car, on the stock housing. Wow what a difference. I love the lighting. The name of the kit is called SPW INDUSTRIES HID PLUS 7500K. They are real nice and stay blue all the time. I will be posting pictures soon.

Yeah I lost my high beam but these lights are brighter than my stock high beams, you don't loose them in a way.

Is there a link or something that I can reference to? Because I've got the BMW conversion, and I was thinking of putting HID's in the low-beam sockets. Just wanted to see if they have the right socket size.

I know that U.S. spec BMW 3-series use 9006 bulbs. This kit uses a hella ballast and hella bulbs. 6000K is white 7500K is blue and 9000k is purple, this is how he sells them. The kit is plug and play no splicing or cutting required. He sells these kits on ebay under the seller name of optionmotor. You can contact him through e-mail, his e-mail is optionmotor@yahoo.com He sells them for $400 shipped but I've ordered lots of kits from him before.

No idea on the legal issues of the HID system. Plenty of my friends have the same kit and never were they pulled over for having these lights, I doubt I will.

Darrick: It's raining so the pics wont come out that nice. As soon as the weather gets better I will post pics.

KlownPR109: All the kits are worth the same except for H4 because this is the only kit that keeps the high beam and worth a little more.

Pictures will be posted soon
