HID Conversion help?
#11
Ok heres what i found out about HIDs in stock bellhousings
http://isearch.nhtsa.gov/files/Shih.3.html
They are illegal to put in stock bell housings that were made for halogen bulbs. So I will have to find some HID compliant bellhousings if i wanted to be completely legal. I probably could slip by law enforcement but it is a shoot and miss situation since where i live there is quite a few street racing gangs around.
EDIT: Just the head lights are on and its dimmer than even my low beams.

ok, so i was thinking of doing this set up.
getting some Clear/Euro Headlight Housings such as these
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/EAGLE...Q5fAccessories
and then installing the kit you reccomended dodgeramguy. I would assume the fitament would be the same if they are OEM replacements. Do you guys think that those bellhousing would be legal witha HID system? at leasts more so than the stockers?

Should be fine. With what you said about illegal in stock halogen lenses This is better than stock but would they still count them as being able to accept halogen lights? I dont know. I say just go for it there is a lot worse people out there doing illegal things than putting hid's in stock lights but if you have the money to get the lenses do it they will make your truck look better since they are not the stock lenses. I wish I had the money to do it.

spencerS those new lenses look good. i think people don't use the stock lenses cause they scatter the beem, that new housing might do the same. i saw i guy on another site use that lense you linked with the stock houseing and it looked sick. i don't know whats legal so just go with what looks good.
