HID Help

[offroadfury6]

thnx for vail, I have this site for HID's HID Conversion Kits - Single Beam Model VVME.COM LLC Your Best HID KIT Supplier

I want to do something crazy, order 3 kits of HID's for lows, highs, and fogs. I wanted to know what would be the bad effect for doing this? like any heat issues? wiring poblems? also looking into the 10000k, which one would match the fogs? the same 10000K ?

[minichopper6hp]

the bad thing? expensive. it can and has been done though no problem

[offroadfury6]

bad thing, expensive...not an issue

[minichopper6hp]

go for it then, one bulb to a ballast as you already know. youre gonna blind people with that setup

[offroadfury6]

i get blinded all the time, i'm used to it...I wonder if brands make a differnce

[vailskier3]

10k is going to be very blue...and also, remember not to flash your brights when you get them because they take a sec to warm up when you turn them on, and you will burn out the bulb if you turn on an already warm bulb (sounds like it would be worse to turn on a cold one, but its not)...

...from my experience, brands do not matter...
...as far as the heat goes, i wouldn't put all the ballasts near each other, so good luck finding enough places for them to all fit. i'm not saying it can't be done, but good luck...lol

[offroadfury6]

i'm not sure i understand what u mean by flashing brights...u mean dont use the brights? I THINK the lows are on when the highs are, cant remember. I been youtubin', i think the 10k will get an easy ticket, still watching vids on 8k. where did u put ur ballasts?

[vailskier3]

like, don't repeatedly flash them, like, if you are getting someone's attention. lows are on when highs are...you are correct. i screwed the ballast to the frame, you will find a spot, its easy enough...

[offroadfury6]

wow the frame? lol...when u cut ur car on, are ur lights dim then gradually get brighter? if so, what was the company u bought from? apparently some are cheap knock-offs and dont dradually get brighter...

such as this as soon as he cuts the lights on

[vailskier3]

yeah, they have like a 2 second warm up period because of the igniter. i got em on ebay from a store called endlesscarparts.

mine get really bright pretty quick tho...i love em. i could video turning them on tonight and post it on youtube if that would help you...

[offroadfury6]

I dont want to bother u with uploading and camming, all that great stuff, it is alot of work...but if you wouldn't mind it'll be another project to do on R&R lol

k thnx lol...will check it out tmrw, its 1:30am here

[vailskier3]

check it...

the first one is in my parking lot, so you can't really see it too well, so i went to a dark parking lot nearby and did it again...also, i'm noticing now that my beams are aimed pretty low...lol. i might need to aim them a little higher...also, since they were done on a digital camera, they don't look NEARLY as bright as they really are...

thanks alot man, you should posts those vids in your "new HID's and Subs" thread so other people can see Any Idea on how the bright lights would look? I'm thinking like awesomely godness haha... and when i put my silvanya bulbs in, I had no issue with headlight being aimed low or high. also being aimed low might help from blinding the sheet out of some poor teen

no problem, the brights would probably look like if you harnessed the energy of the sun into a headlight, lol. i think my headlights were just aimed low before i got my HID's. it has nothing to do with the new bulbs. i think you just turn a few screws to change it. one for up/down, and one for left/right. yeah, you should def. aim yours low if you're doing a 3 light setup for the sake of granny and all the others out there that don't like extremely high light output in their retina's...

[offroadfury6]

yeah I'm going to go with a 9005 setup first ( brights only ) and see how i like it, my low beams are already great

[offroadfury6]

well F it, i think i'm just gonna order the 3 sets of HID kits, how hard is it to find space? as far as like mounting? cause u said something in a earlier post about goodluck

[vailskier3]

may just require some drilling of some holes...there is plenty of space to do it i'm sure. i was just saying good luck because you wont be able to find a place to put 3 ballasts by using local screws/grounds for wires/etc...
