    Headlight Question

    Hey guys I think im getting a 2009 Galant ES on saturday and one of the first things I want to do is add HID's. My question is that if I have the ES will I be able to throw HID's in it or will I have to find projector style headlights, maybe like the GTS. Help me out, Thanks - Mike

    you dont need projectors for HID's but they do make a difference. Projectors have a nice cut off so you dont blind other drivers. I have HID's on my 8G without projectors

    Go with 8000k and you'll get a nice crystal white. I haven't had a problem with my HIDs and the Police or with other drivers complaining about being blinded. Stay away from the ebay HIDs if possible.

    Genuine experience carries a lot more credibility than the ability to answer a question.

    8K is pretty blue, my 6K from DDM has a slight blue tint...when I had 8K they were very blue and it caught cops attention
