![]() I ALSO CAME ACROSS THIS SYLVANIA PAGE WHICH SHOWS YOU WHICH BULB IS RIGHT FOR YOUR CAR: Please correct me if I'm wrong but this is what I am getting out of my research:ġ) A PROJECTOR IS THE "FISH EYE" LOOKING HOUSING WHICH HOUSES THE HID BULBĢ) A RETROFIT IS WHERE I WOULD HAVE TO CUT OPEN THE STOCK LENSES TO MODIFY/ADD THE PROJECTORģ) A COMPONENT KIT IS WHERE I WOULD NOT HAVE TO MODIFY THE LENSES AND ONLY NEED TO INSTALL THE BULBS AND RUN POWER TO THE BALLAST. I'm assuming this kit uses my existing housings/lenses? Ok, I went to The Retrofit Source online: headlight upgrades for all applications and it looks like the kit they sell for my low beams is 9006: Morimoto Elite HID System - HID Component Kits from The Retrofit Source Inc. Most people already hate HIDs in projectors (which blinds people the least, obviously). So don't think putting HIDs in stock housings won't piss people off. The only difference being improperly aimed lights blind you even more. There are tons of people out here with HIDs in stock housings. To get any sort of quality projector, retrofitting is the only way to go for 04+ has the aftermarket projectors are just god awful.Īlso, if you retrofit, and wish to do so, you can wire your highbeam to the projector to lower the shield, save essentially save money as you'll only need one hid kit, (unless you plan to do halogen highs with hid lows).Įdit: To the comment above, you WILL blind people no matter how your headlights are aimed. The Retrofit Source online: headlight upgrades for all applications has a great, quality selection of ballasts and bulbs, as well as retrofit kits, which many of us here, including myself, have. Think of HIDs in the same way, just multiply, and factor in problem areas.Ĭheap, ****ty ballasts and bulbs aren't worth your money. I also want to be able to do this upgrade myself in less than 2 hrs without modifying the bulbs (sanding, cutting, shortening), replacing my stock housings/lenses, or doing any wiring.Įxpensive halogens are well, expensive, but they're better than $10 for a reason. Ok, So to clarify my situation my budget for upgrading my lights is $100 and I would like this to cover my low and fog light upgrade. OR DO I JUST REPLACE THE BULBS ONLY WITH NEW HALOGEN BULBS LIKE ONE OF THE ONES BELOW (OR WILL I HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT MELTING WIRES/PLASTIC DUE TO BULBS BURNING SO HOT? ESPECIALLY THE 100 WATT ONES):ġ) Hipro Power 9006 - : Hipro Power 2004-2008 Pontiac Grand Prix Xenon HID Headlight Bulb - Low & High Beam: Everything ElseĢ) GE NIGHTHAWK Platinum 9006 - : GE 9006NHP/BP2 Nighthawk PLATINUM Headlight Bulbs (Low Beam), Pack of 2: Automotiveģ) Sylvania SILVERSTAR Ultra 9006 - : Sylvania 9006SU/BP SilverStar ULTRA High Performance Headlight Bulbs (Low-Beam), Pack of 2: AutomotiveĤ) Sylvania SILVERSTAR ZXE 9006.

I think that it is as follows:ĭo I Use a conversion kit and upgrade to HID such as one of the ones below, what watt size (35 watt or 55 watt), and what color do I use (4300, 5000, 6000, 8000)?
