I got some m3 ballasts and wanted to see if its possible to put them in instead of my stock hids. anyone got any input?

 

But why would you want to? Yes you can make it work but it won't do anything different than your current ballast.

 

For the most part a ballast is a ballast. I have to assume you didn't mean the ballast...

 

what are u trying to gain out of this?

 

do after market bulbs of eBay, i paid $18 for 6000k's and IMO they are a hell of alot brighter than stock. they may not be the highest quality but for $18 you cant go wrong

 

Hate to burst your bubble but they are not really brighter, your eyes are more sensitive to white/blue. For brightest nothing beats OEM 4300K.

 

wellllll yea u guys are right, i want to use the m3 ballasts so that I can use the m3 hid bulbs which seem brighter than the stock maxima HIDs... im trying to get brighter lights like my friends who have lexus's and bmws... their HIDs seem brighter than ours

 

just pick up a 55w kit off one of the vendors in the Classified section

 

They are brighter because they have projectors...

Before you ask yes you can retrofit projectors, just search.

 

You don't need the BMW's ballasts. You need projectors and D2S bulbs. Your existing ballasts can power a D2S bulb (you currently have D2R bulbs).
