Except it wouldn't be completely bogus because aftermarket HIDS are, in fact, illegal. And even with the shielded bi-xenons, you will still bother other drivers because the reflector is designed for the exact location of the filaments in an H4 halogen bulb. Not for a $200 blinding glow stick on an H4 base.feloniousmonk wrote:

If any of you want to buy HID kits, try http://ddmtuning.com, I know those guys and they offer lifetime warranty at no extra cost. That means if ballast or bulbs die, call them and you get free replacement.
4300k has best light output. The k rating is only a descriptor of light color, not of brightness. Also, anything over 4300k is colored, and more likely to draw Johnny law's attention to write you a bogus ticket in this so called "free" country.
Yes, it is illegal. I never said it wasn't. And, just because there is a law saying you can't do X-Y-Z, it's never kept everyone from doing exactly that. So... what are we talking about?Shad0wXCalibur wrote:

They are built into the car how are they to know if they are factory or not. It is like my radar I have a K40 radar that is built into the car when I go in states that radar detectors are illegal there is nothing they can say or do about it. It is part of the car as far as they are concerned.

Try using that line of reasoning with the authorities. The difference is the systems in luxury cars are original factory equipment and are DOT/government approved. The retrofit fit you install on your own is not. Since they don't have the fed's stamp of approval, they are deemed unsafe for use on public roads. The NHTSA ruling states specifically that retrofit HID kits are illegal for use and sale.Versa350Z wrote:As for the aftermarket HID's.. I don't see the problem since other higher end vehicles such as luxury cars have them on it.
You are a fool. I did not say to do anything that would harm anybody. When you get new headlights you make sure they are set for the right height. Do you feel like a big man? You cant even say it to my face per say. You have to make a fake account.hateidiots wrote:you truly are an idioti think people like you lie awake at night thinking of ways to be an ***-holei know ill shine bright lights at people and act like they are the problemi hope you die a terrible death you jerkrot in hell
Alright I'll say it with my own account. I agree with him. (well maybe not the rotting and dying part). It's a law designed to stop fools from blinding every other driver on the road just so they can look cool. Get over it. Law's are put into place for a reason. You seem to think the reason is just to piss you off. Get over yourself. Your freedom exists up to the point where it violates somebody else's.feloniousmonk wrote:
