im interested in getting an hid kit for my 1997 celica gt convertible but i dont know which one works for my car, i want the 8000k, and im a little confused on when the payment needs to be made, thanks



Payment can be made whenever you're ready— I have a local supplier I'm using now, so there's generally only a day or two turnaround time now. If it's a kit that he doesn't have in stock, then the turnaround time is about 5 days.

If you want the kit for your low beams, then you'd need 9006 bulbs. smile.gif

Sorry for the delayed response, I've been driving around in the desert for 10 days but I'm back now tongue.gif

witch ones are the brightest....the 12000k?.........and the dont have to be hooked up in the hi-beams lamp?

edit;...ok well i read a little more it seems the lower the k the brighter the light but the less color hue ull get.........now for my next question.......is it possible to have two diff sets one for lows and ones for high........im thinking 4300k for highs, and either 8000k or 12000k for lows for the flashy city drive.....would that work fo a combo?


They're all equally as bright, it's just a matter of what color you want. The color temp doesn't indicate brightness, it indicates color, i.e. yellow vs. white vs. blue vs. purple.

Yes, you can get one set for the lows and one set for the highs. Low beams are 9006 bulbs, high beams are 9005 bulbs. Since most people don't use their highs too much, typically people just get kits for their lows, but if you live way out in the country and use your highs a lot than a kit for your highs would be fine. If you're just using your highs to flash on and off though, then it's not really recommended.

4300k is a very white color and would be good for your highs if you decide to go that route. I have that color on my lows right now, switched from 6000k, and I like them just fine. I really liked my 6000k ones too - they're also very white but with a slight hint of blue. But for all the rain we get here, 4300k is a better color for my purposes. Aesthetically, I liked the 6000k better though.

For your lows, if you want to go flashy, then yeah, 8000 or 12000k is definitely a stronger blue color. Keep in mind though that that color isn't legal in most cities, and although the instances that I'm aware of with people getting ticketed for them is low, there's still a risk. Just be aware of it. I see it all the time, those colors, and people don't seem to have any problems, but I wouldn't feel right if I didn't at least warn you of it.

Turnaround time if you get both kits will be about 5 days from receipt of payment, as my supplier doesn't tend to stock 9005s in higher temps. PM me for pricing; I'll combine shipping for you.

I don't have enough of a margin to give a decent multi-part discount, so really you'd just save on the shipping. If you're thinking of ordering more than 2 sets at once though I might be able to work something out on a better discount for you on top of just the combined shipping. 2005 Silverados take the same bulb sizes as our Celicas; 9006 for lows and 9005 for highs.

I've gotten quite a few requests for photos of the kit, and some requests for info that's on page 1, so for those who don't want to go to the beginning of the thread, I'm copying and pasting the first (edited) post.

For sale are HID kits shipped to your door for US$134.00 (this price is for the continental US).
High/Low HID kits are available (for cars that use the same bulb for the highs as the lows, not Celicas). Cost is $165 shipped w/in lower 48.
AK, HI, APO/FPO & International shipping rates vary greatly; please PM me for current shipping quotes.


Description:
-Kit includes 2 HID ballasts, 2 HID bulbs, mounting brackets and screws, and necessary wiring/plugs. The kit is plug and play and plugs into your current headlight wiring harness.
-Warranty: 1 year
-Specification:
Normal Input Voltage: 12V
Allowable Input Voltage: 9V-16V

Here is a guide you can use to see the color temperatures. This is only an estimate: what you see may vary from monitor to monitor; further, I pulled this from the internet and it is not intended to be an exact representation.


This is the actual kit (photographed by myself, not a generic picture)


This is a 9006 HID bulb up close (photographed by myself, not a generic picture). Sorry it's kind of blurry. I'll work on replacing it with a better shot.


This is a picture of the 6000k kit installed on my car before my projector retro. You can see the contrast between the color of the HIDs in my headlights vs. the color of the halogens in my fog lights.



You can choose the color temp of your preference as well as the bulb type.
When ordering, I will need to know the bulb type and color temp you want, as well as your location if you are outside US.

Payment will be accepted via paypal or money order.

My paypal account is mjgriff1 (at) gmail.com PLEASE include your name, site user name, address, color temp and bulb type. I don't want to misplace any orders and all this info will be necessary for confirming your order.

Good for you, take your chances then. Mine are proven quality and people on here know me, can you say the same for the random eBay sellers?

I haven't bumped this up in a while because of the whole thing with ^ THAT GUY selling on here. Turns out he was a scammer, his kits were NOT what he represented them to be, and so on.

So I thought I'd bump this thread up to let people know that I still have kits available. No minimum order, and generally the turnaround time is 5 business days or less. I've been able to tell people as they've ordered through me what exactly to expect in terms of turnaround time. In some cases, there was no downtime, in others, it took about a week.

Either way, you guys know who I am and you know you'll get your stuff!

Hey-
See page one, the first post, there's photos of the kit posted there. They're plug-and-play and plug right into your stock wiring harness, and they also come with instructions. They're SUPER easy to install and generally only takes about 15 minutes to install. Basically you plug the bulb into the ballast and into your stock headlight harness, mount the ballast somewhere along the fender behind the headlights, and you're good to go.

Yes, they're really bright. Definitely best suited for projectors, but lost of people, including myself, have used them with the OEM non-projector headlights. As long as your headlights are aimed properly (so you don't blind oncoming traffic), you should be fine. As to the legality of them, that's in accordance with your local laws. They're not legal in a lot of places here in the US since our cars didn't come with these stock, but plenty of people use them anyway without problems.
