99 Cl Hid Kit

Hey, Im about to purchase a HID kit for my 99 CL from ebay but not sure if you can get pulled over for having HID that are too blue. The HID kit that Im about to get is 10,000 K and from the looks of their website's pic, it looks really blue. My bro's S2K aren't that blue but more on the white side. My question is has anyone ever got pulled over for having HID that are too blue? I sent the seller a question about this already...just waiting for an answer...

Heres a link to the site: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=8026816729

you might as well drive around with a box of instant rice duct taped to your hood.




with anything over 6000K you're not doing yourself any good. Besides the fact that the light output will be terrible (unless you like looking for squirrels in the trees at night) and you'll blind oncomming traffic. Even 6000K bulbs have greatly reduced output compared to 4100K bulbs... anything above 6000K and you're right back where you started most likely... "blue" halogen bulbs.

If you want "blue" lights, stick with halogens... if you want true HID performance go with a projector retrofit using OEM components.

Your "bros" S2K has OEM HID and projectors meant to distribute the light properly and evenly, the way HID should be.

sorry for the misunderstanding...I was just describing how my bro's S2K light up white. I would never think of competiting or even comparing with his HID against some Aftermarket HIDs.

Do your HID really improve your vision at night over reg/xenon halogen bulbs?

you can never really capture the true color of HID's with a camera, you'd have to see it in real life

I bought an oem phillips kit off him a while back, he WAS a really good seller. His member name was integra9006hid, but when i went to check if he was selling anything today for ya, it says he is no longer a registered user.

12000K would give you purple lights, which means you are asking the cop to pull you over. I would never go that far lol.

you wont get pulled over anymore i think.. didnt sema help pass a law that basically says.. if your headlight assembly is DOT safe and your lights do what they're supposed to do (in this case.. light up the road) its legal

if you dont aim your lights correctly and are blinding oncomming traffic, that hazzardous, and you can be pulled over. also if your lights are too blue, you can be pulled over because youd be trying to impersonate a cop
