do you realize why you shouldnt install an HID kit in a stock 00-01 housing?
there are too many things that go wrong.


the reason why after market HIDs are illegal

You are worse that my Mother In-Law... Just let it go. There are Police and Vehicle Inspections for a reason.

well here's what the lights look like... the pics of the output kept coming out blurry, but you can still see the color pretty well





as you can see the purpleish tint has gone away, which i am happy about

yeah it does look bright in the picture but i think that was just the camera.. my girl didnt seem to think it was that bad behind her, and it wasnt that bad for me when i sat in my moms car.. but she has a CRV with a factory tinted rear window so it might be different... i gotta see what it looks like in another car

well your pic is more off to the side than mine is... my driver side headlight might look brighter because it's closer to being directly in front of the camera.. notice that my passenger side headlight looks to be about the same intensity as your driver side headlight because those 2 are closer to the same angle.. i noticed that when i was right in front of the car both headlights looked really bright in the picture because they were both directly in front of the camera.. but as you go off to the side, they get less bright

see now thats your problem. You love your country too damn much, you would bow down to this EVIL country in a heart beat. What you have yet to realize, is that no one her GIVES A DAMN about the law, or something being illegal. dont you get? We do **** because we like it, NOT because we think some A@$ hole cop is gonna pull us over, or we are gonna get DENIED registration due to failing inspection. THATS WHAT paying people off can get you. A BRAND new registration sticker..Sure you may have to kick out a lil cash, BUT NO BODY cares.

BTW? what are you running in your headlights? They dont look like stock bulbs
