Yea they work in the stock headlight.
Depending on how bright yo go, you may want to aim them down for oncomming traffic. Or if you don't care about other drivers just leave them haha. I have 8000k and i didn't re aim them and i don't have many problems with other drivers flashing their high beams, or flipping me off lol. -------------------- -Protection mode, For when your amp tries to blow its load. 1995 Toyota Celica GTS - Daily Driver 1999 Chevy Cavalier - Winter Beater 1994 Honda Civic CX Hatchback - Dead My Celica! |

Tons of useful info here. x5000 And also a thing to consider, I don't know if this is just a few states, or the whole nation, but it's actually illegal to have super bright bulbs like HIDs inside reflector housings. Why do you think all the new cars with super bright LEDs have projectors? But I'm pretty certain that unless your HIDs make the night look like day, cops won't bother you. I have HIDs in my old reflector housings and I've had no problems and I don't care. I'll eventually get projectors though. Not so it can be legal, but because they look GOOD lol. -------------------- taking too long to mod since '09

And not cause im cheap but because im broke but projectors for our cars are so expensive (thanks to poor aftermarket support) so I'll risk the cops here although i do want 8k Highs and 8k lows
