••ü•• REVERSE HID - We're Almost Done - Taking Requests
#3
perhaps this is a stupid question, and I'm missing something obvious...but what is the point of having HIDs in the reverse lights, since they are really not on all that often? Most people (me not included) don't even bothering changing their reverse bulbs to Polargs or PIAAs (which cost like $20), so would people pay alot more than that for HID reverse lights?
perhaps designing an integrated rear fog light for the maxima would be a more useful/practical application....just a thought....not flaming.

Is the output (on the road at night) really that great out of a reverse reflector? You should post some night pics and not just of the light its self.
Just seems kinda wasteful to me.

i guess these are really OVERKILL ... but isnt modding the point of being different and doing things that you want. he isnt MAKING anyone buying theses, he is just showing what else is being made out there. these do seem a little bit much but to someone, these may just seem cool or something they like.
i think they are cool. but dought ill be buying any.

These are for people like myself who run DARK (13% is not dark, 10% is not dark...im talking less than 5% light transmission here) tint and wish to be able to reverse without having to roll windows down.

Yeah, those sound cool! I can't wait for the HID dome light, or the HID guage lights, or the HID mirror lights, or the HID map lights, or the other interior HID super hot white lights. I'll probably have to run my A/C on high though so I don't cook myself in my easy-bake car. Not even double super duper dark limo tint will prevent outsiders from seeing my super cool rice-a-roni mobile. Awsome!
P.S. Lets get moving on those HID side marker lights too, so I can blind those coffee can muffler rice-a-roni driving kweers.

NOT COOL AT ALL.
