    yeah so I'm finally thinking of throwing in the 8k 35w lowbeam HIDs and 8k 55w HID high beams and also 8k 35w HIDs for the fogs, I know I will need a relay harness for each kit but will my cars electrical system/battery be enough to support these? or would I need to convert to the big 3? bigger alternater?

    thanks...

    Make sure each ballast has a relay. If your comfortable with making your own... google hid relay and go to google images.

    I run 2 sets on a stock alt ...and im fine.

    LMFAO at needing a bigger alt....

    But for real, use relays and you'll be okay.

    You can run a stupidly large amp before you need a bigger alt yet you're concerned about lights requiring a bigger alt.
