Should I put HIDs in my high beams? I have the bulbs and ballasts available. I have 6000k HIDs in my projectors and LEDs in my crystal highs. Seems a waste to put HIDs in high beams since they take a bit to warm up dont they?It looks strange hit HIDs in the lows and incandescent in the highs, white and yellow. But how often does one use highs... |

They are brighter and light up things further due to the color temperature. Maybe during very dark nights down a country road, but I never use my highs. They Dont due much. -------------------- 94 Teal GT-DD 223,915 miles SOLD

Mine doesn't have a single badge, it's funny when people look around, trying to figure out what kind of a car it is.

Today it warmed up a bit and I had a little time so I installed the fuel filter that's been in my back seat for weeks.
I had gone to Sears just so I could find a 6point 17mm box end for the banjo nut on the top so I could get it off without rounding it. Once it came off I tipped it on it's side and could see the muddy grey gasoline pouring out of it. And I had my brother watch the fuel line while I started it to be sure it wasn't leaking, and sure enough the bottom leaked the first time and I needed to torque it a bit more. And what a big difference it made in the way it idles and accelerates, even just the sound of the motor is much better. -------------------- Bust a Deal; Face the Wheel.
