I don't think so as I don't think you would have them on long enough and constantly turning them on and off like through traffic would just mess up the ballasts.

Can you get a close up picture of the outside of the housing on the reverse part? Courious as to how close the bulb is to the housing. Also what size did you use for the HID light?

No prob man same here as well no one has them around here but me and the leds just were not bright enough and looked wierd for some reason to me and with 2% tint in the front and near 0 in the back it was a little hard to see at night lol.

Yeah man I will finally be home tomorrow morning after being out of town for work for 3 weeks so I'll take some pics for you. They sit perfect and if your worried about melting the lense don't worry at all. In the summer in 100+ degree Weather I left them on for an hour just to see what would happen and nothing lense was hot lol but didn't melt distort or discolor at all. I used the h13 bulb. It's a dual filiment bulb hid low beam regular bulb for the high beam but you just cut off the regular bulb.

H13... Doesn't need glue or sealant at all just trim the big tap slightly and they go right in nice and tight. I'll pull one out tomorrow and take some close up pics of the bulb so you can see what I mean.
