Yes, hes right. No offense. HID's are High Inensity Discharge bulbs. You know, the ones with the blue/purple lights. Which you don't have. :sad10:

Sorry, but in a projector housing, HIDs are d1s or d2s unless they are rebased. Even in a reflector housing which uses d1r ot d2r, the results are still the same. And your stock wiring harness for lights is not going to handle HID current because it comes with ballasts that push out 23,000 volts.
d2s bulbs are long and skinny, not "tiny little bulbs".

You have normal lights just like almost every other driver on the road.
haha

The blue and purple you see is the end of your visible color spectrum, not the color of the output. They are white and when they hit a bump, thats why you see them change color.

Whether you like them or not, nobody should be paying $300.00 + for them.

You could have saved a c note here

They're 170 cheaper than MT...
