Re: Re: Re: Hmmmmm
Sorry I went off on you last time. It's your service department that should've taken the hit. [/B][/QUOTE]
Thankx Kev. Service Mgrs. dont like mods 'caus if it aint in the service manual they dont know nothin' - Also when they see mods they see someone that may know something about cars and wont be able to $$overcharge$$...Do-it-yourselfers dont feed service mgrs kids so they will blow U off and wait for the unsuspecting to pull into the driveway.

ok, thanks man.... I'll probably know soon how much I am going to get for repairs and stuff. I will be in touch with you if I decide to go for it. Oh, and don't sweat the Newbie title... it's all good. Just post a bit more and you will be rid of it in no time

what to pay... what to pay...
795.00? well.. I guess the only way to swallow that pill is to look at what other mfgs charge for that as an option. I was with a friend who is about to pick up a Merc C240... hid? $895! I think the Altima is $499. And of course the aftermarkets are $400-500.
the other thing to consider is that they are 50% cosmetic and 50% function. Still alot of cash, but its not like a bulb you only see at night, you get the agressive light group too.
Only downside, even at this price, is it will really p*ss you off everytime you see a /rental/ /base GXE/ /grandma beater/ '02 with the same lights you shelled out major cash for. but they still look great day and night.

I have HID headlights and foglights and they are phillips. They are pretty purplish/whitish. The foglight is actually H1 HID. Since the conection is almost the same all I had to do is take out the reflector and they fit right in. Here is a pic! They are about $450 - $480.

Had them since April and no probs! Plug right in and very simple install over all. Have not tried the Panasonic, Raybrig, Bellof, ect... but Im sure those are real good kits also. I chose Phillips cause the brand is very reliable. Good Luck!

Luckily he slammed the brakes enough to scrub off some speed otherwise he would've hit him going 35 or so.
BTW I was all over these two Si's when they went at it. I kept flashing my HIDs for them to move....jerks.
