Default HIDS in the projectors??

Hey all...got some tyc projectors for my 99 gmc...love them except the light they produce through the projectors is a bit dim....are hids worth the money? or should i just get some higher output bulbs like pias? Also..do hids last longer or shorter than normal halogens?

Go with the HID's. If yo have projectors I would recommend 4300K or 6000K HIDS. They will give you the most white light and road coverage. And HID's use less power than regular bulbs.

If you do, you need the conversion for an H4 bulb
