Maybe I shouldn't even be thinking about this since I can't drive at the moment but, how do I tell if I have the single HID or not. I tried searching the forums but maybe I am not searching the right words. When I went here: http://www.sylvania.com/Consum...Guide to determine which kit to buy it asks if you have "with HID" or "with halogen." And I know the bottom (high beam) is halogen, that I can tell without a doubt, but the top (low beam) looks like it may be HID since it is a VERY BRIGHT white light. I really really want to do the Bi-Xenons.

I'll have to take some day and night close-ups once I get it running again. But if I am reading that site correctly it says that there are single xenon hid stock... the low beams being xenon and high being halogen.

cool, so just as I thought, that means I should only need to get a xenon conversion kit for the high beams to make it bi-xenon. Which, you know, I was just thinking, what's the difference as far as visibility in projector headlamps as opposed to xenons? I mean, they just kinda look weird too. With that round, dome shaped glass light thingy.

And thanks gimli, I appreciate it man

So how would I go about installing projectors in mine I wonder? Is there possibly one of the later model G's that the headlamp unit would fit onto the 03's?

well only the 2007 have BI-Xenon HID. i doubt you can fit the lights into yours .. but like i say NEVER say NEVER ... just some modifications and it will fit i think

You can search GOOGLE and find some HID kits for the G , they might have it idk for sure

You know I could have sworn I saw a thread when I joined a few weeks ago with someone who just went bi-xenon on his G but I can't seem to find the thread, search or otherwise. I was hoping he may have some info on it.
