#55W HID VS HALOGEN HOW TO#

Anything lower looks yellow and anything higher looks blue-purple. When looking at colour then to get the OEM look choose either 6000K or 5000K. Steer clear from eBay, chinese knock offs are not worth it. If you have projector units then HID kits are much better. It doesn't matter if the bulb and kit say it is designed for a reflector unit, it doesn't work. The beam pattern is unpredictable and dangerous for oncoming vehicles. Okay, so if you have reflector units then do not fit HID kits. Lastly I'm also trying to pluck the courage up to remove the headlamp units, bake them, open them up and go for the 'black' look.any advice/suggestions on this would also be most welcome. Only bulbs I'm thinking of leaving standard are front and rear fogs as I think I've used them probably twice since new and so really can't recall how effective they were, but given they're so rarely used I don't see the point in changing them out, unless they blow of course!

I'm really disappointed with the factory fitted bulbs on the headlights, but would quite like a more modern look so am considering HID's for main beam and Osram Nghtbreaker Laser or Unlimited for high beam.Īlso thinking of using LED's for indicators, etc, but no idea how to tell a good LED from a lesser made product. I'm looking to change all the bulbs out, front and rear, (and interior lights) in time for the winter months that will no doubt he here before we know it.so what should I go for? I've owned my mk7.5 fiesta 5 door Titanium since new.now three years old and I'm NOT about to spend another winter driving around with the crap bulbs that Ford seem to enjoy fitting as standard equipment! Okay, so looking for your opinions on the pros and cons of each option, what's good, bad and ultimately.what's best.
