HID's worth it? Hi/low/fog necessary? Good brands, with good prices?

Hey guys, I am new to this forum and am looking into some halo projectors. I also want to look into ordering some HID's but most of them I have found that people recommend are over 100 bucks and only include low beams. Are they worth it? Are just low beams good enough? Does anyone know of some HIGH QUALITY brands that are more reasonably priced? Thanks!

i would have seen that ^^^ before i got mine. HID's are absolutely worth it by the way. the beam goes so much farther down the road. the kit i got was 8000K high beams and halogen low beams. the HID low beams would be nice, but i got a set of 55w fog lights that really make up for how much the low beams suck

a lot of people have projectors, check in the lounge for a review on the spyder's i believe.
 


I would say HIDs are worth it...just make sure u get a relay harness also otherwise u will be going through what i am right now...one headlight stays on the other one flickers n goes off lol...still waiting on the harness so DEF get that! Good luck


by the way i got mine for 60 off of ebay the color is great... hiddistributor is the sellers name...super fast shipping
 
Did you guys go with the HID's with the same factory bulb setup, with a both high and low beam on the same bulb or some other bulb type with only low beams?
 
windycity, do you like your projectors!!!?!?!?!? I really want to get a set but I am EXTREMELY hesitant because I have heard they have a lot of issues.
 


dont buy from DDM...they take forever to process. i ordered them on monday night and they still havent shipped them. My relay that i ordered off of ebay at the same time is probably going to be here tomarrow or friday.

It took mine a few days to process too, but they are great quality and life time warranty.
 
ok maybe i was being extreme about not ordering from them. im just impatient and my relay has already arrived and they still havent processed it. but they are cheap and hopefully good quality. they will fit either factory or projectors, as long as you order the appropriate bulb and only go 35w so you dont melt anything. i just got the low bulbs because i never use my high beams.
 
i take back what i said about DDM. they are having problems with receiving orders that are out of their control.
 


did you get your HID's in yet? I just ordered 35w 5000k duals from them. The lady said that the duals inlcude the upgrade harness. :)

ok, a full 2 weeks later i finally received them in the mail. it was pretty confusing, and there was a point where i was just yelling "what the F*&%!" its mostly because where the old bulb connects to the new harness, they dont have it plugged in. like they just give you 2 wires and a connector thing so i just had to guess to figure it out. i havent really tried them out at night yet because its not dark, but ill post later.
