laz Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 I would say do 5K. Even better 4.5K 6K is to blue and will get lost in the rain. X --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doccrowley Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 55watt 6000K or less from ddmtuning.com Only consider the Raptor kit, not the slim kits. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaGe Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 im running 4.5k i like them dont get me wrong but i would have went with the 5K if i had to do it over again. OTM.

GTLEGACY007 Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 I have the 6000k and I like them, but having seen others in person, i'd definitely never go higher than 6k. I don't have any problem seeing with mine. Sure, maybe it's not as good as a 4.5 or 5k as far as visibility, but it's as good or better than stock for sure.

MiniStiGuy Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 5k is what you want and that is in 35w or 55w setups. OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timbaru Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 What site did u order from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flander Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 I'm running 35w with 4500k bulbs and the wiring harness. Just installed mine last weekend and really didn't get to try them out in the dark until Tuesday. The improvement I saw was impressive. It covers more in front of me and in the distance. I bought mine from DDM Tuning. Granted, I didn't support a Vendor on here but I got it cheaper. If you want to support a vendor, Here the Link to Xenon Expert ddm kit Personally, I wouldn't get anything more than 4500k and 35w. If you go with 55w unit, oncoming traffic might flash their brights at you and it might be illegal for 55w in your area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenNorthLGT Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 and it might be illegal for 55w in your area. Not that it matters to most people (myself included), but just F.Y.I. it's often illegal to put HID's in a vehicle that didn't come with them. (at least in michigan, so I wouldn't be suprised if it is in other states as well) Regardless of wattage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might not be so common for Yoopers to have HIDs, factory or aftermarket, it's common around here. I'll have to verify if aftermarket HIDs are actually illegal in Michigan or if law enforcement just don't care. I have a family member that's a sherifs deputy, so I'll just ask him. No offense on the Yoopers comment. I'm south side of the bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniStiGuy Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 It's a federal D.O.T. law and unless it is a manufactured item for the vehicle it is technically illegal to put in. Now we all know its also illegal to modify emissions systems etc... but do we really care... HELL NO!!!! OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear Posted September 12, 2010 Author Share Posted September 12, 2010 Should be here tomorrow. I'm thinking about trying to retro fit some fog's, or put some PIAA's where you'd see a Front Mount on the far sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boymk123 Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 I'm having trouble deciding between the 6000k's and the 10000k's. Any advice? 6k is nice 10k isn't get 35W, 55W is too bright Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniStiGuy Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 you can get either one you want. I personally like my 55w for my retro for the low beams and 35w for fogs. OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morganluke Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 4300k is the optimum output and what is fitted to cars with stock HIDs. I have 4300k in mine and they are just fantastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear Posted September 15, 2010 Author Share Posted September 15, 2010 So they are in. Pictures tonight but I can't figure out where to mount my driver side ballast.
