dhuskers_11 · 08-22-2006, 12:29 PM

they help you see a lot better? and where did you get them from?

Dave04Mustang · 08-22-2006, 12:32 PM

i got them here from mustang tuning... yes in my opinion you can see better than the stock ones just because they are much brighter. However the kit that comes from mustang tuning there are no high/low beam. It doesn't matter to me because i think they are bright enough that you don't need the two beams. But overall I would not go back to the stock bulbs. Hope this helps you out. Let me know if you have any other questions.

dhuskers_11 · 08-22-2006, 12:33 PM

do any of the other ones have highs and lows that you know of?

Dave04Mustang · 08-22-2006, 12:40 PM

I did see a few but i forgot which sites they were on i would suggest searching

also ebay. If you do end up doing that expect to pay much more. Also if you have a 2005+ mustang you have to do wiring otherwise its a very easy install

dhuskers_11 · 08-22-2006, 12:49 PM

HID's dont come as a High/Low beam bulb. They are a single filament, not dual like the normal 9007 bulbs you have. If you have a set of the projector headlights which require 2 bulbs, one for high beam and one for low then yes you can have high and low HID's. With the single beam kit that goes in our OEM headlights, you need to adjust your lights up a little bit to where they are little higher than when they are normally on low beam. I've got the Zenon 8000k kit in mine..had them for about 5months and nothing but the best. At night you can see alot clearer..but they attract more bugs

Alot of people get the ones on ebay...which are the same as the ones from MT just cheaper. 6000k (white) is brightest, 8000k (blueish) bright but not near as bright as the 6k, 10000k (purple) visablity is like having APC blue bulbs..just purple and cooler looking.

IMO, HID headlights suck - when other people that aren't me have them.....I get blinded so much by those ****ers with HIDs in the oncoming traffic....

Silverstars are nice though, who needs fancy HIDs.

thats just because those people are morons and don't readjust the headlights like you are suppose to. People like that should get tickets and
