REAL HID housings for $65?? Or the one with the crappy looking glass in the middle that doesn't give you a cut off line?? I hope you don't mean this garbage that would blind people if you put HID's in them??

Either do real HID's with projectors, or upgrade your harness and/or alternator and use good halogens. Blinding people is irresponsible. Not everyone has good night vision. They don't need to deal with that.

I agree with Tyler. And Elton. If done right, HID's are good light.

But I also bought the autopal kit and got a harness from 4crawler.
