2001 SE HID converstion What is Needed?

Hi I would like to convert my 2001 headlights to HID, What is needed? Where do you get the parts from? Approx Cost? Do you need to convert the lenses?

i suggest you get an H4 adapter with your 01 lights. this will reduce glare for oncoming traffic and give you a better color (no yellow, if your rating is less than 5300k). will also give you a fairly nice cutoff line.
you can get these here: http://www.casperselectronics.com/Me.../merchant.mvc?

Are you trying to post that? Cuz your link goes nowhere. Anyways, yeah, make sure you get a pair of those shields. I built my own HID kit, and am waiting for additional funds to buy my 6000k bulbs.

Hid

I converted my 2001 with H4 HID kit (no high beam). Driving at night on open road without the high beam is suicide. I had to replace it with the bi-xenon. Big improvement!
