Hi 6gcers
Had anyone got HIDs in their celica?
I'm looking at buying some in the near future.
Some I'm looking for recommendations

Thanks

i bought these from the GB....CoWay 6000K HIDs



if u want brightness go higher temp ratings...if u want durability go 6000K ...made a world of a difference than oem/super white bulbs

how much do these run? and where can you usually get them? i had a problem with some hyper white bulbs before, they kept burning out the socket that they plug into...toyota tried to charge me $1200 for a wiring harness!

The explorer uses 9007's... I am guessing you have 9006s. What temp would you recommend? Why you selling?
Thanks,

so to get this confusion i have corrected...i will end up with a total of "4" main HID ballast(s)...one for each of the lights? how will the wires connect for all the 4 ballasts and will it have uneven or equal power transmitting through all of the ballasts?

you don't need HID for your high beams.. it's probably a bad idea too.. HID isn't made for flashing (which what highbeams is usually for)... you'll kill your HIDs like that.. plus HIDs take a few seconds to 'warm up' before they are full power... which defeats the purpose of flashing... you can have HID foglights though...

i hv 2 ballasts.. wiring harness 1 end to battery... 1 end to each ballast 1 ground... also hv 2-3 fuse and relay... i thnk

my point was kind of more that once you get HIDs... there really is no use for high beams once you have HIDs... having just HIDs on lowbeams already gives a very wide and far beam

I have a question for everyone who are using HID + JDM projectors cuz im interested in getting both. As projectors as been made for RHD celicas, if you dont open and modify them for an LHD use, does they dazzles a lot other drivers on the left side of the road?
thx !

i removed the original projector (cut it out and threw it out because the headlight is all one piece) from the jdm headlight and had tsx projectors put in... when i stood in front of my car.. it was hella bright... if u hv HIDs that raise against oncoming traffic... i would think it would really suck for the oncoming driver... the proejctor inside the jdm housing.. the cutoff is just like this \___\___ and it just keeps going up... if the cutoff was more like:
---\___ it wouldn't be as big a deal
