My Phillip 6000K Xenon and other mods ! 800x600

Finally I got my 6000K xenon, my friends were telling me that I put so much money into my car but no HID, wtf? Haha, here, I got Phillip 6000K HID kit today, along with new SJ hyperwhite foglamps(old one cracked), new M17 inner bulbs, tint back the front windows, and my ghetto cf license plate frame. Here's some pix.

Looks great, did it improve road visibility at night?? What did you have to change or was it a simple swap? I am interested in putting the same lights in my VW Golf.

are your HID's much brighter than stock? ALso do you have hid's in your running lights, it looks like they are the same color.

That looks awesome! Man, it's so bright!!!

How much did the 6000K cost? Where did you get them? Did you put them in yourself or did a store do it for you?

Man, me likes it a lot!! Looks awesome, I gotta get mine now. What does the kit usually include? Did it include bulbs for your foglights too? And how much moola did have to cough up for it? Around the neighborhood of $500 right? Looks like money well spent.

Thanks for the compliments guys, I got my HID through a friend of mine and he did it for me. The kit cost me $550, the inner bulbs are polarg m17 ($10), and the foglamps are the right size to fit my RS kit. All I can say is this 6000K is BRIGHT AS HELL, people thought I was high beam them when I was driving. I'm loving it ! I got the license plate frame at the tint shop when I got my windows tinted back again.

Yeah, I'll take pix when I have time. The lights do turn a lil whiter after a while, but still bluish. 99 ranch is on Culver.

I always get the deep fried tofo, lobster, and shrimps there, they're so good, but very pricey though.

Bruce,

I thought Ranch 99 is a supermarket store. Did you buy the m17 lights in the Ranch 99 store or in a different store with aftermarket parts? Sorry, I do not live in the area but do know of a few Ranch 99 stores in the San Jose area. Wondering if they will have the lights up here as well.

Thanks...

When you walk into 99 ranch market, there's is a little shop you will see, they sell whole bunch of stuff not just car accessories. Bargain about the price by telling the guy/girl that your friend bought it for $10. I got my celphone holder and interior neon lights there too. Good luck.

I miss Sam Woo after moving to the States. Of course, I moved from Toronto, Canada to Dallas, TX. I just got back from Vegas, hopin' to get some Sam Woo while I was there, but the Health Inspectors closed down the place. I make a flight to Houston via SW Airlines just to get good dim sum if I'm desparate.

Love the lights, LR. Now I wanna get some for my car! Do you know if it's easy to install or not having the stock halogens? And did ya need to have anything programmed from the dealer?
