1 Attachment(s)
Hey heys! So I have been looking to change out my headlights to the "Xenon ones" OEM but they are about $500 each! So, what is a good way to get this look? I have seen some where you have to mount a ballast and all that, is this the ONLY way to achieve this? If so, what do I do? Go with kit already that includes everything or buy seperate? Also for fogs what can I do?

All you need. Keep it to 4300K-5000K.

Lightwerkz is a another company for HID kits with a great customer service. Morimoto H11 kit is what I just installed on my 2012 Max.
|
7thgens don't already come with HID? I am lost ??
|
7th gens come with halogens or HIDs depending on the package. easiest way to add HIDs to a non-HID car is get an HID kit and a relay harness to wire it up.
|
Yea man I just didnt want to go with a KIT, have been trying to find the "Xenon" pair on ebay but man they are expensive! I put some offers out there lets see what happens...........but if that doesnt go what is your suggestion to go with? My wife has a G35 and I love the lights, I want them for MY car!!! lol also another thing, going to buy a 12xpack of interior LED's, is there a big difference in brand or all pretty much the same??
|
I paid $150 for the Morimoto H11 kit shipped to my door from Lightwerkz.
|
I just bought a pair of Sylvania ZXE H11's for my fog lights. They're supposed to have a "HID look" even though they're xenon filled. They had them at Autozone for $65.99. I found them on eBay for $39.95 with free shipping. I watched a video on them from a car enthusiasts tv show who said they all would recommend them. I guess I'll find out when I get them in the mail soon.
|
Sylvanias, yea I saw those at Autozone but I didnt want to buy em cuz if its not what I want, I CANT return em, so thinking of just going with an HID fog kit if thats what Im gonna have to do
|
Why do people try and cheap out on the upgrades on their cars? That is half the price you could have paid for a quality kit? Sylvania bulbs suck by the way.

I've had nothing but good luck with Sylvania. They're fog lights. They're not important enough for me to spend $150 for a HID kit. I'd rather spend $40 and them be close enough. Anything is better than the yellow looking stock bulbs.
