HIDs in stock 02+ halogen projector
My friend recently gave me a H7 HID kit, but I noticed that the Stock Projector has a different base that will not lock down the H7 HID base. Is there any fix for this? BTW, I did a search so any help will be appreciated. thanks!

8000k HID's in Halogen Projectors...
Just hook them up to your city lights instead of your low beams or else they will flicker when you turn your car on. The only way to get around this is to go to the dealer and have them activate the Xenon settings so the car can recognize them via the computer, but most dealerships are ghey saying that its a liability. I got that same BS, so I just hooked them up to my city lights instead and voila, they work like a charm and look damn good to me too.

Alboston- I want to try this route first seeing that i already have the projectors and a retro HID kit.
