Was planning on going for HID's but ended up just upgrading my lamps for now.

Achieved the look I wanted for fraction of the price. Yet to see how they are at night but will let you know

Went for these for dipped and main

That looks really good.. Where did you buy them from?
 
HID's Direct. They're on eBay aswell but seemed to work out cheaper to buy from main site with postage
 
Have you put 100w in the dipped beam?

Shhhh... Yeah I have.

Was told as long as they're no pointing up to much they'll be fine and not blind people.
If start getting flashed all the time ill swap for 55w.

I've got 100w's in my main beams and haven't ever had any trouble, but as the dipped beams are on for much longer periods of time I'd be more worried about the switch/wiring.
 
Should be fine. Done a bit of Ohms law

55w is about 4.5 amps and the 100w will be about 8.

Wow... I did learn something in college...
 
can you post me a link to the full beams you bought please pal,, i got hid's fitted to the headlights but just want bulbs like yours for the full beems,,
and would these be the same bulbs i put in my fogs????
no point in spending cash on hid kits for fogs if the bulbs look as cool as yours,, they dont get uesd much do they!
thanks dude!
 
id like the link to mate for the full beem ones
 
should i buy the same bulbs for the fogs on the bumper aswell?
 
i think you over estimate how exact the wires are in thickness for the headlights.
 
I just installed these recently , how do your new full beam ones compare to your old ones ? I went the same root and installed the 100w fulls but i am dissappointed by the light output. I am sure I had more output from my old 55w Nightbreakers.
