Some questions about CB7 running HIDs.

[Aojiru]

So i've been looking through the forums to see some pictures of cb7's with HIDs, but i havent seen much with the pictures of them shining on the road with reflectors instead of projectors. Can anyone link me to them or post them up?

Also, im thinking about putting on 9006 6000k HID's for my low beams using relfectors but...im not sure if i should do it since some of the members on here says that it's better to do a retrofit.

Any answers or opinions are welcomed. Thanks in advance!

P.S. im planning to do a HID conversion kit.

Is that with the bulbs aiming down or just normal?

I have hids in my stock lights and its alright. It's WAYYY better than any stock halogen bulb. But get projectors for the ultimate light output.

Well HID's always work better in a retrofit, cuz as u can see the light is all scattered around in the stock housing versus a projector where the light is nice and uniform. I would get them regardless cuz they produce way more light then halogen (just aim correctly so u ain't blinding everybody).

[Aojiru]

ah...i see. alright, then i guess i'll pick them up at www.xenondepot.com Volt's seems to be a good choice, do you all agree?

There are so many different companies selling HID kits these days its really just up to u. I have always bought mines off Ebay. Regardless of how many cats diss Ebay I've never had a problem with any of the HID kits I've bought.

and this is why projectors art the only way to go, soooooo much glare...

[deevergote]

Yeah, housings made for halogen bulbs will throw the HID light all over the place. It'll look terrible, you'll blind oncoming traffic, and everyone will think you're a ricer.

Decent projectors aren't all that expensive anymore, and a retrofit really isn't that hard to do. Two of my friends have done it, and neither of them are more than average in terms of doing such things. Both sets came out great. Just take your time, follow directions, and you'll end up with a nice projector retrofit that you can be proud of.

Thats the reason i got projectors, i hate the glare from people that just shove them into stock housings.

Plus it looks badass.
