Default X-TYPE HID KIT for sale

I bought a super slim HID kit with 5000K bulbs, I had to get rid of the car before I could installed them. Here is a link to the ones I bought.

I let them go for $50.00 plus actual shipping, they are brand new and have never been installed.

Default RE: X-TYPE HID KIT for sale

Sounds like a deal, but just a few questions.

I do not know much about HID's? The lower the K number the brighter? This level of brightness should blow away the stock illumination? Will this harm my factory wiring or headlights? To install I guess I would have to splice into the + and - of the stock wiring, is there anything else I should know about?

Any other information you have would be awesome.

As long as I don't have to replace anything else and theseHID's will butt up against my system we have a deal.

Regular shipping is fine - how would you like me to send the $58.42? I have paypal if that helps. Here is my email address christo@christonet.com - we can talk further from there.

Thanks!

Well first I will start with the bulb number, 5000k is the closest to white you can get, if you go higher the light starts looking bluish/purplish. Go lower and it looks yellowish. The HID will be a purer light then the stock. It has a different look, better to see at night as well. There is a cool factor to it alsol. I think itblows the stock away but that can be based on personal opinion.If you take your time and do it right it will not hurt the factory wiring, the headlights will be modified slightly for the HID bulb to fit. I beleive you do have to do some splicing, as long as your a little handy with mechanical thingsyou should be fine. Everything you need comes in the system. I would suggest searching the forum before buying so you get an idea of what people have run into and how things are done. Just so you know what it takes to do it.

Go ahead and do some research on installation and get back with me. If you want it paypal will be fine just give me the word.

Thanks for the crash course - lol! There IS quite a bit of information on this topic out there. I didn't see anything about the heat damaging anything. The Ebay auction states HID is 35 watts and the stock is 55 watts? Either way I think I can handle the job, no biggie, just put 2 new headlight's in, removed the bumper and all. So I think this is a go! Looks like silverstars in the fog is a very close match to make it uniform too!

Ok my paypal account is brk.kland1@msn.com

Please give me your address either at paypal or e-mail it to me (same address). I will e-mail you when I send it out, which should be tomorrow if I get the money today. If you don't do insurance or tracker I am not responsible for lost mail through USPS.I willget a receipt when I mail it.
