McCULLOCH HIDs

Hi everyone,

I am getting a deal on a new set of McCULLOCH HIDs for $480 cdn ($350 US), and I like to get everyone input on these lights.

Also,... how do I disable the daytime running lights?

Car's a 93 500SEL.

Thanks

McCulloch Lights are awesome... beware of the cops though, they like to pull you over because if you had 4500k like me, they are too bright... thats all i think about them

I don't know about those McCulloch Lights. I heard some negative things about them, but to make sure I would reccommend checking out Hidforum.com and check in the search engine for that company.

I myself was thinking about a set of HID lights, and supposidly globalpremier sells some kits that aren't too shabby and are reasonably priced. I would rather go with so Catz HID's but since it's illegal to sell kits in the states it's a lot harder to get ahold of them for our vehicle.

Check out xenonfactory.com, supposidly they're pretty reputable, and have a good warranty.

Just my opinion ....
