I have both. My hid is the hottest possible 32000 or something. They are purple. (cardomain.com - blueproracer) i have a pic. I did have to drill the hole a little. With hid they have there own grounding and don't need to ground to the assembley. I love it. Alot of people can't figure out what's coming at night.

Has anyone installed the halo lights with the HID kit. I already have the halos installed and im really liking the HID kit. But I have mixed answers. People tell me the 6k kit will melt the housing of the lights. Also if i install the HID kit and it is possible to do with damaging the housing what do you do about the high beams. there are two sets of bulbs in the halo lights now. one for low and one for high beams. Any ideas or someone that has the answer please let me know. thanks.
The light output color is measured in Kelvin degrees which have nothing to do with temperature. The wattage is what you should be caring about. Halogens over 55 watts like those that will give you a bluish output will not only melt or fade your headlight housing but they will fry your cables and connector sockets.
If you go the HID route you should be looking into 6000 Kelvin or lower to keep your car on the "legal" side. Anything above 6000K will start looking too blue or even pinkish to the like of law enforcement. Plus the higher the number the less usable light. HIDs come mostly in 35 watts, though you can find 55 watt bulbs and ballasts. You will be more than safe running 35 watt HIDs with properly aligned projectors. No risk of melting or fading, and the car will have a more modern look.
