HID LIGHTS.........again

[justdubbin]

I'm thinking about HID lights,
I know that in the past ALEX & PETEVW have had them, also HOT66 once mentioned (post here) that 911 & Porsche World magazine had done a feature on HID for the 964 which he was going to try and post some info.
If any one can point me in the right direction, particularly you lot on this side of the pond (shipping costs I hate them)
I've seen some kits available from Hong Kong, but I'm a bit suspicious about sending money there with all the reports of dodgy traders


Cheers Rob.

I'd like to get some info on this too.

I think that the 911 lights through the 964 will fit into the early fenders with little to no modification. That being said why not just get a set of halogen 911 lights with some bright bulbs.

I bought a set of halo HID projector beam lights for a 1991 civic to be modified to fit in my stock headlights. I only paid 150 bucks for em.

pretty cheap huh?!

You can get ballasts and D2S bulbs from ebay. You will need to modifiy the bulb with the H4 ring to secure it. YOu can use an original H4 bulb.....smash it up and glue the the plate to hold H4 bulbs in the lamp housing to the HID bulb.

You can get already done H4 converions on ebay Germany. They use original Hella stuff.
To make one thing clear....the brightest bulb is the 4300k one. All the ones with higher numbers just gove you a more blueish light and actually reduce brightness.
Info on that is plentyfull on the net.
