Those Fing crooks!!!! no its not even HID there tying to trick you into thinking it is with those little relay things. real HID uses ballests to makes several thousand volts to create and electronic arc ( like arc welding or sparl plug ) creating the light, very different than the halagen bulbs that use filiments. HID conversion run you about 300 bucks on ebay...those are just color bulbs to make there light appeare blue, works now wear near as good as real HID stuff

BTW if ur getting one ur best off to get one in the 5600-6000K color as that has the most usuable light for your eyes, above that it stars shifting outta the range where ur eye is most sensitve( thousands of years of eveloution due to the color temp of the sun ), people only get these cause A they think higer temp is better or B its done for looks , IE the 10-12000K lights are purple but look cool but think RICE

"9006 Halogen H.I.D. LOOK Conversion Kit

This kit will fit for ALL cars which use the 9006 light bulbs

This is a complete conversion kit to let you experience the high priced H.I.D. lighting system. Basically there are two powerful relays (4x12V 40A)with double drive which enable each filament to reach up to 140W. Two specially designed halogen bulbs are provided which has air vents to help dissipate heat from the halogen bulbs therefore prolonging the usable life of the bulbs. Anti-corrosive lead-plated treatment to prevent ill-contact. The H.I.D. conversion covers will convert the halogen bulbs into the H.I.D. lamp systems."


Yep, These are for the HID look. Not true HID's

I just got my Eurolights.com HID kit in with the sealed beam conversion kit for my 2000 TA, WS6... It will be installed within the next month so I can't give any feedback on it quite yet.
