HELLO TO ALL THE Q RIDAS OUT THERE. JUST JOINED. THIS SITE IS SICC AND FULL OF GREAT MEMBERS THAT ARE VERY HELPFUL TO OTHERS.THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENIN!!
SO I OWN A '99Q THAT I BOUGHT FOR $300 BECAUSE IT WRECKED UP FRONT AND THE OWNER DIDN'T WANNA BOTHER WITH THE TIME AND TROUBLE FINDING PARTS.I LOOKED FOR 2 WEEKS AND FOUND A FRONT CLIP FOR $1K
THE CAR IS A FACTORY OPTIONED HID CAR.IF I WANTED TO IMPROVE THE LOWS AND HIGHS,ARE THERE ANY BULBS OUT THERE THAT STAND ABOVE THE REST? I WOULD LIKE TO GO BRIGHTER BUT NOT TOO MUCH BECAUSE OF OFFICERS OUT HERE LOVING TO GIVE BS CITATIONS.
ALSO,SOME GOOD ADVICE ON AN HID KIT FOR MY FOGS THAT WILL MATCH.SORRY FOR RAMBLING ON. JUST WANTED TO CLEAR WITH MY GOALS.
ANY HELP IS TRULY THANKED IN ADVANCE.PEACE!!!

You might take a look at hidplanet.com
they have long and detailed discussions about hid and the variuos choices.

you are better off w/ halogens in your fogs and using a 'catz zeta' (sp).
Again, ten times the information is readily available there.

This will help you find the bulb type: http://www.sylvania.com/ConsumerProduct ... mentGuide/


sharphid.com has any type of hid bulb you need. [email protected] if you have any questions. Best part is lifetime warranty.

IMO, the 35w 5000k give an OEM look. That's what I run. 55watt is too bright(good for high beams) and anything above 6k looks like trash.
