ok did a search about HIDs but only found one post and it was more about where to buy HIDs and so on....blah blah not what i was looking for....

i really want the S14 projectors.....everyone seems to do the S15 and so on.....BAH i want a correct beam pattern....plus i really want to attempt the rear S15 taillights instead...

anyhoo...the question is.....how well does HIDs work in the S14 Projectors? since the projector was designed for a halogen bulb and not HID.....does anyone have hids done in them? pics? is the beam pattern decent wit it, improvements? or should i just HID up my zenki headlights? i just want to change it since the housing has turned yellow ewwwww someone pee'd on my headlights :rolleyes

i tried HIDs in an integra projectors before and it wasn't so great looking but it was a long time ago in a friends car......but HIDs in my subaru looks fine and a HUGE improvement from halogens and even hyper whites....

even HIDs in the yellow fog lights that came with this car.....anyone did it?

but seeing my girls 97 S14 she got halogens in there now and they look horrible i can't even see the ground.....man its bad....

anyone with some advice? i like to see the road at night.....its what i prefer hahaha

:D

Bump, I need to know the exact thing too.

Should HID kits for the Kouki S14 projectors be any different from the older S14 headlamps?

I was looking at this

Altough the "These are REAL HID Lights!" quote makes me weary, is a universal S14 (95-98) kit possible despite the headlight projector change??

Oh I have those too. Theyre nice and white, but obviously they're not as bright as HID's.
