HID owners get in here! Lol

[jwibbity]

diode dynamics is my only source for HID's for both of my cars...

100% agree on the retrofit to avoid blinding drivers. However I suggest getting the D2S kit, you can run the 55w setup in the D2S, not the H1. Mini H1's can not handle the heat and the chrome peels on the interior of the housing.

I only buy from TRS for my own vehicles, amazing customer service and always strive to make things right if there is an issue on their end or our own!

This. TRS makes solid stuff at a decent price. I'd personally avoid DDM like the plague, to the extent that i'll be throwing out a set of bulbs/ballasts that came with some headlights I bought for my BMW.

Nice to see poverty beams are an issue here as well as CVN though.

And not everyone has the know-how to DIY or $$$ for the retrofit.

I'll stick to my poverty beams and put the money towards headers.

I see more glare from improper aimed halogen lights or people running around with their high beams on.

The black housings on our Marauders make a big difference on not blinding people when compared to sticking HIDs into Grand Marquis full chrome lamps.

I know plenty of people who swear by DDM bulbs and ballasts, and have never had problems..myself included. Heck, my fog light slim ballast was dragging on the ground in front of my wheel a couple months ago for a couple of miles, sparking and all til a crotch rocket guy flagged me. It ground down much of the slim ballast's metal on a corner, unbelievably, it continued to work perfectly after that abuse.

Ive had HIDs since 2005 , and only been flashed with highbeams once! if aimed properly they don't blind anyone , ive gotten more compliments than I can recall.

If CVN owners can afford projectors then Marauder owners have no excuse not to have them. Even if you pay someone to put them in you are looking at no more than $600 and that figure is on the high side. The quality of light output is worth every penny. Once you have projectors you won't want to drive a car without them.

I guess if you are happy with this sort of light output then PnPs are fine.



Personally I prefer this.



And if you are worried about your OEM headlights, get a pair of aftermarket ones off Ebay. People spend thousands on adding more horsepower yet fail to address one of the important safety features of the car. I don't get it. OEM headlight output on these cars suck.

Also, these look awesome.

[MOTOWN]

Your setup looks nice , but projectors are like opinions , and .......oh nevermind!

[jwibbity]

my 8k HID's look nothing like the picture above in regard to light output, plus I personally don't like the look of projectors in the MM housing

[marauder21]

I prefer this.


but:
day 456, still waiting by the mailbox for my HIDs lmao

[marauder21]

^^Oh those are just my fogs and corner lights.
(I rarely turn on my headlights. Actually i never turn on my headlights lol)
