2k2-3 HID headlight houseing....

hmm..I want the housing only..i don't want HID and ballasts Is that possible to get that besides getting those from org members..? i've posted a thread on parts wanted..jsut wanna know if there's other way to get them. Also, if I got them, what kind of bulbs should I use on them if i don't want HID, I want PIAA bulbs. Thx

why would you get them without the HIDs?? the housing, does fit regular bulbs, like your existing H4, it is too small...unless you like retro fit somehow, which i dont think anyone has done...the only other option for you is to buy those projectors.....they will fit your 2000 max and kinda looks like the HID housing, but has a projector instead and you could put H7 PIAA bulbs (i think h7)....

because I think 2k2's housing is better looking than projector...and i can also put nice angle eye s on it. Real HID cost way too much and i'm a poor student..i can't afford HID.. so i'd rather spend less money buy housing and use H7 bulbs instead of HID

i say you just spend the extra $ to get aftermarket HIDs...they will be cheaper -- just work a little longer and you will have the HIDs
