Thread: HID Kits

I've had a set of telescoping Bi-Xenon on my jeep for over a year now and have had no problems... They were an inexpensive set off of ebay and work great. When I flip the high beams on it is like daylight. The key to having them work correctly is removing the factory reflector. My kit had bulbs with a built on reflector and I had no clearance issues. Another important thing is to make sure you have a good ground connection, otherwise they will flicker, which after a period of time can cause failure. My total cost shipped was only $120

Yes on 04-05 the DRL's are the fogs. They changed for 06-08. Mine are the low beam headlights and they run at 7-9 volts during daytime and full voltage at night. So to answer your question no wouldn't have the same problem I have. Not a real big deal just another thing that sucks about the 06+.

You are correct with the numbers on the 04+. I checked sylvainia for lamps.

9005 = 04+ High beam
9006 = 04+ Low beam

Based on this I'll go back with the 9006 6000K

I'm not up on the 05 but they do run the fogs for daytime running lights. I don't know if the voltage is lower than full. I would guess that your OK,
The fogs for 05 is the fogs list as 898,

Still have not heard from Dave, so I am going to send another email to him tonight in hopes that something happened to the first one.

I will keep you posted.

Thanks

Ok guys and gals...

I finally got an email back from Dave, and I really didnt like what he had to say, and coupled with some of the other experiences others have had with VME, I decided to go with someone else.

Dave wanted you guys to send me the money, and then me order the kits all at one time. I guess that way I would have to eat all the paypal charges and the shipping to your door.

Anyway, I have found another deal that is real close to the same price shipped, and you can buy them out right. Just do me a favor.....when you order the lights and put in the bulb type, color, and daytime phone number as requested, put down GRANDPRIXFORUMS.NET under that....

Here is the link, you guys can go ahead and buy whenever your ready.....PLEASE post up your thoughts of the kit...

If that's the case would we even have any issues just putting in HID's w/o doing anything else i.e: the adding or removal of relays or even a delay switch like Webracin has?

Okay, there's some confusion. The DRL's for 04-05 GPs are the amber turn signals, NOT the "fogs." they are in the same capsule in the foglight area of the front bumper, but are two different bulbs entirely.If you were to get HID fogs it would not affect your DRL's. In fact, I'm guessing you could run your DRLs and fogs at the same time if you chose to do so. As far as voltage and wiring up a relay or delay, im confused. Regarding the 04-05 GP crowd only, we would just need the 9006 for low beams and the 898 for the fogs(NOT the same as the DRL amber turn signals)? I don't care about high beams, dont use them that often...
