You should totally get HIDs in the Hellas. I just put my caps on mine, but you can't really tell much difference between the Hellas and the headlights.

And I got the capacitors Michelle, and I got them on my truck, they work excellently. I really love the lights.

As far as the wiring how big of a pain was it for the hellas? where did you put the capacitors for them?

you wont need capacitors for the hellas. those are for the headlights. to wire the hellas would be just replace the bulb with the hid bulb and mount the ballast then wire it up. i think ried had to do a little cutting to fit the bulb in right?

Yea, just a little bit of filing on the back side of the housing. Nothing much. Really really easy to get these put together and ready to go. I'd show you my wiring, but I'm ashamed of how my wires look. I need to get some wire loom, and clean up the 10' (at least it seems so) of black wire that the lights came with, and get them together better. I had it kinda nice, but my stepdad grabbed them, thinking they were messing up my lights for some reason when my fuse just blew. But to wire them is really easy. If you decide to go with HIDs in the Hellas, and have any questions, just let me know.

Thank you

The lower the K, the more lumen output there is as well. Meaning that you can see better.
