has anyone installed an HID conversion kit? any inputs regarding the installation? ive bought an HID kit and i am to install it myself. thank you.

 

Sorry about my ignorance!! What is HID?

Thanks

 

I modified a set of porsche hid's to mine! What ru trying to find out?

 

HID - High Intensity Discharge lights. an after market replacement/upgrade to factory/stock head lights.

 

yes. i am upgrading my headlights to hid's.

did you install it by yourself?

 

Thanks for update my vocabulary!!

 

Yes i did it myself and it was pretty simple. I didnt even have a plug in kit so i cut the wires and wired them directly to the transformer. Its only 2 wires positive and negative. The hardest part was making the bulbs stay in place so i made custom brackets to hold them in place by the back. Its been fine for about 6 months now. Any questions specific u have?

 

i made my own HID for my '79 Malibu using Lexus & Infiniti parts laying around the old body shop i worked at, & i love them

most 9004 (2nd gen vans) & 9007 (3rd/4th gen vans) are a simple click together kit, but remember if you buy cheap, you get crap, stay away from most of the sleazebay stuff, go to a place like www.xenondepot.com & there are others

the higher the number the more color, but less actual light output
