Hoen Xenon match fogs bulb just went out, thinking about going to hid setup.
 
Well after about 6 months my hoen fog light went out. I was thinking about getting some hid fogs.

I noticed some members got theres from umnitza for around $300.

Whats the best path for my new project.

Thanks
Krunk

Go HID. That'd be hot. I too have the Hoens and they just don't cut it for me. Once they blow, I'm goin the HID route as well.

btw, I would go with uminitza for the kit or buy something of great quality for cheaper. ie Techone has great HID kits for around $210 for a GD. My cousin was telling me about this GD from another forum. I'll let ya know.

Passenger HID has a delay
 
Hi,
Just wondering if someone can help me diagnose this issue. My passenger side HID (OEM) started looking pink and not very bright and has a delay comming on. This morning it came on 20 seconds after the drivers side. Do you think my HID bulb needs replacing? I had the drivers side replaced a year ago. My truck is a 2002

I'm planning on doing this as well. I'd like to have my whole front end 6000k (Angel eyes, Headlights, and Fogs). :)

its a sign that the bulb might go out soon so just get it replaced

Thanks. Another question is, do you think it might also be the ballast?

Contacted Umnitza

$270 Shipped for the 6000k.

Sounds like a good deal,
Has anybody done a group buy on these or would be interested in starting one?

I would be, but low on funds currently. :(

I actually just got my H3 6000k HID kit in the mail today, I'll be installing it tonight, pics up tomorrow hopefully :D

Kamel Jockey 01-11-2007 11:14 PM

Got the hids installed, took about two hours total mostly because I had to drill out a hole in the plastic cover on the back of each foglight housing to run the wires to the ballast. Its sad how much brighter they are then my stock halogen headlights, might as well not even turn them on and just drive with the fogs..

Still waiting on my hid headlights and predator angel eyes to arrive, should be here and installed next week :thumbup:
