Those Thinking Of Hid Lighting
#1
Product: XLight H9 5000K HID Plug and Play Conversion from MC Motoring
Price: <$100CDN
Where to Buy/More Info: http://stores.ebay.ca/MC-Motoring

I had my H9 halogen bulbs burn out after 6 years of use which was a decent life span I think, but looking for some decent quality H9 bulbs I found the price around the $60-70 mark, perhaps my inability to shop :) I found these HID conversions on ebay and the price was around $30-40 final bid on allot of the acutions so I decided to pickup a set. My total came to about $92cdn shipped to my door. I didn't expect much, but when the package came it was a quality plug and play kit, I did not need to do anything but do the foglight/drl mod, outside of that everything was just unplug, plug in and go.

The light output is way better than the hallogen lights I used to run, so far after almost two weeks of using these lights I really like them. The balasts and bulbs are made in korea. Outside of getting bulbs/balasts that come from Germany or Japan (and cost $400+) these are real good quality for the price.


I'll try and post some quick pics of the cutoffs and some good light output photos.

Quick Pic for now:

Yeah, HID conversions kick butt, especially when they are plug n' play. I intend to get a set for my Stang this winter (in a 6000K for both the headlights, and the foglights).

Looks good man

You think these will fit 05+ head lights?
I know I have 9007 bulbs, so Iwould get that kit instead.

Oh, btw, I guess you lose high beams with this setup ... right?

nope.. he has projector beam headlights (hellas).. the highbeams are (or should be) halogens on inside projector.

I wouldn't recommend HIDs for regular focus lights -- you really need projectors to ensure proper cut-off unless you want to risk getting pulled over for misaligned lights...

I know my kit used Relays triggered off the OEM harness, the amperage a fuse is rated for allows it to blow before your wires catch fire... putting in a higher rated fuse is asking for a fire... so even if they are plug and play.. I would spend the extra $10 and half hr and put some relays in... sourcing power with higher gage wire and an appropriate inline fuse directly from the battery to the NC switch on the relay and out to the ballast
