Hey guys, just a little update on the car...I got the HID's installed today. Damn...I can actually see where I'm going. No more missed pot-holes.
I got myself the Xenon 9006 kit with purple bulbs. The install took me and my friend about one hour.
The finished product like I said earlier is great. Now I need to do amber bulbs for the sides.
I'll take some pics of the car with the lights turned on sometime tomorrow.
what company did you get and how much? I have been want a set but I dont know which to buy, and how would they look, you know illegal or not! So whats up?
I went through my buddy who's the general mannager at Garage SPL (remember poster of red veilside supra in august issue of super-street https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/smile.gif ). The brand for HID's is Xenon. The retail on those is 700 but I got them for 450. The install wis really easy too. You have to cur a couple of holes in your light cups (gray pieces that cove up the bulb). After that it's like a puzzle you have to put together. https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...lt/biggrin.gif
You can check with GDI imports I think Anthony was selling HID kits for 450+shipping. Make sure you don't get something that's really cheap, because it can brake. I think that phillips is a good company as well, they also make ballasts for PIAA HID kit which is illegal in US, because it is twice as bright at the HID we have here. :shock:
The HID are legal...at least the ones in the states. I don't think thtey will ever become illegal because of the AUDIs, BMWs, Acuras, Lexuses, and other brands that have HID from the factory.
How do they look: I got myself the purple set. The light itself looks...purple. But the light it produces is bluish white. It's really bright. I drove around yesterday at 11:30 p.m. and it feels like I'm riding in the day time...I can see all the bumps, etc.
So I give HID's two thumbs up, and I will never go back to regular bulbs.
So if I went through you could I get the same price?
Pavel, just a thought, maybe post a poll on how many would be interested in an HID kit for there car, maybe for 8gs and 7gs and talk to your friend, maybe see if you can get a group buy together. People will get HIDs, and your friend will make a few sales? I would like to get those, but im in debt, need to fix my car first! https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...efault/sad.gif
Actually I have two dull spots in my headlight. I hope it's not from the light. If it is, then I really hate mitsubishi for putting out crappy product on the market. My friend with a civic uses them, as well as others with supras and stuff like that.Quote:

...and I thought I was the only one galant with HID :cry: . I guess I'm the only 7G with HID https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/laugh.gif . So your kit is blue? Mine is purple...really really purple when it starts up. After that it's a bright blue light.
Ya, Reelax has had his shit 4ever. JDM lamps round out the package.
I want HID now dammit, I mean hell... it's dark here 23 hours out of the day now! :cry:

Oh well, at least I'm the only 7G :cry: , lol. Hey the last pic has an 8g. with the decal that looks just like the one on Veilside Lancer, where did he get that made? Or does anoe sell stickers/decals like that?
Yeah I've had mine for almost 2 years. I don't use them anymore as they are too bright for oncoming traffic.
he had it made custom... here is a link to more shots of his car:Quote:
