and for the record, i have no problem with HID's. i mean i find spending hundreds of dollars on your headlights pointless, when you could spend that money on making your car faster, but that's up to you. i just dont want to hear about how pretty your lights look in this thread

My car doesn't drive differently, but I drive it differently at night.

it's a light, it glows, light does not arc, basic physics light goes in one straight line unless something moves it. if you guys want to talk about what makes your car pretty and how it resembles some crazy ufo, make a post about that. this is for performance ONLY

High Intensity Discharge (HID) lighting technology replaces the filament of the light bulb with a capsule of gas. The light is emitted from an arc discharge between two closely spaced electrodes hermetically sealed inside a small quartz glass tubular envelope capsule. To operate, they require ballasts, which supply proper voltage and control current. The amount of light produced is greater than a standard halogen bulb, while consuming less power, and more closely approximating the color temperature of natural daylight.

It seems to me like the thread starter should be stating what's allowed and what's not. Meh...whatever.

HAHAHA! Becareful!! It happen to be once.
I gave a couple of response on one of the threads. He deleted 3 of my responses. If I complain, I might get ban. Once I am ban, I lost my search option. If I lose my search, I'll end up asking newbie question. I have to keep my mouth shut. It does feel like communist on the org once a while. Better watch whatever you are saying or you'll end up asking newbie question. Oh! I forgot, newbie get flame too. I rarely see sympathy from the moderator.

Notice the reference to the electrical "arc" that generates the light.

What about the strobes, I saw the short video clip. All you need now are strobes in the headlights and the county logo on the front doors and we'll call you sheriff lobo.
