i saw a hummer h2 the other day and i saw that it had tese nice true purple/blue hid's more purple though. i was wondering what the k rating would be on those and i was thinking that it would look good on a celica. does anyone know the k rating at which it looks to be a purple tone. it's even more purple than the lexus and bmw headlights. i tried looking for hummer stuff on the web but coudn't find anything. i'm thinking their like a 10,000 k rating according to what i have been reading. the mucculloch kits that are on ebay are like 300 bucks. but then i would have to get two sets to match right. i dunno this is confusing. anyone have anything.

People putting HIDs in halogen heads is precisely why they're illegal. You can get a ticket because its easy to tell that the HID is aftermarket. Like Coomer said theres a cut off on the beam on projectors.
And no, you dont open the housing up you must get the same base bulb as the headlamp requires. For projectors you get an H1 bulb, for the USDM heads youd need a 9006. -------------------- |
