Hi All,

I installed aftermarket HID ballast/bulb combo after my OEM igniter burned out. I got the new lights working, however they seem extremely dim compared to the OEM lights. I think they may also be pointing too low. I have tried adjusting them from the screws under the hood, but they don't seem to have any effect on the beam level.

I bought the Power Series ballast which is supposed to be the highest output (55W, 3900 lumens) and 6000k bulb. The product link is D2S HID Light Conversion Kit | HIDeXtra

I am noticing they look pretty bright in the pictures, but on the road they suck.

Does anyone have any experience with these HIDextra lights? They seemed to have pretty decent reviews, however I think they are so dim that it is not safe to drive at night (especially on the highway).

 

#1 - 6000K bulbs look pretty, but usually suck for actual usable light output
#2 - You generally get what you pay for...I know nothing about this system, but the price seems fairly low.

 

i think they may be sitting to low? In that second pic you should see a very sharp cutoff (straight line with a little step)

 

It looks like your headlight lenses are hazed like crazy. Correct me if I am wrong.
