pepe Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Any one looking for HID's at great price ?? I just gotta set of Pilot HID's 8000 on ebay for $168.00 all plug and play they are really nice wow I am Happy. The guy selling them is "great deals on HID's". Of course then you need to do the fog light DRL mod but it is easy with goos instructions on this site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuned200 Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Congrats! Still don't know why people drool over HID's though. for a car that stickers at 30k, they should be standard.. i love my banzai hid kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBLU24 Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 that is an awesome price i opted to go thru RPM who is a vendor on here - it was a bit more $$ but I feel more comfortable with a vendor's customer service if something goes wrong rather an ebay email address Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepe Posted November 4, 2006 Author Share Posted November 4, 2006 Congrats! Still don't know why people drool over HID's though. Vision at night is un real, huge differance, and they look the business! Can't think of better reasons ????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepe Posted November 4, 2006 Author Share Posted November 4, 2006 Oh I forgot to mention I was on the pilot site and retail says $800.00 !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zmarko Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Vision at night is un real, huge differance, and they look the business! Can't think of better reasons ????? For some reason they bother my eyes more at night than normal headlights. I find myself squinting more as I think the shadows it throws are a sharp contrast and it makes it more difficult to focus (this is probably just me--lol).

charlesb Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 HID's have ill effects on most people. however some are so caught up in the hype, they won't admit it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The B4 Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 for a car that stickers at 30k, they should be Optional i love my banzai hid kit Fixed.... most $30,000 cars don't have them standard... a BMW 328i doesn't have them standard. however, they should be an option.

I find myself squinting more as I think the shadows it throws are a sharp contrast and it makes it more difficult to focus (this is probably just me--lol). and that's not an uncommon problem... especially with older people... HID's can make it harder to focus for the people behind the wheel... and vehicles with self leveling HIDs will affect some people as well.

Guest Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 I hate HIDs. They blind oncoming traffic, even factory self-levelling ones - in certain (not uncommon) situations like when you go uphill and a HID-equipped car is approaching it on the other side. You people must have serious eye problems if stock - truly excellent - Legacy lights are not enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sargeant_002 Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I would like to compare a HID vs. the stock setup in our Legacy's...I thought my Corolla headlights were bright...haha...anyone just try Silverstar's? Definately a good price though, and if your happy with them...that's what counts...and thanks for the heads up on the available price deal...
