Hid Faq

[pilotnord]

Mga sir, thanks on your honest opinions. Actually I resides on Leyte and I don't know if there are best shops wherein you can have best upgrade on lights.
Retrofit is the best option, but not for now 'cause it will void my warranty. Maybe for now, I'll just go for HL upgrades just to increase the light intensity. But may I know if there are available H11 Phillips XP, XV or Osram NB? Also in the future, is it possible to do the job personally on installing retrofit HID's and just order the parts w/o going to a shop? I have knowledge on electronics yet I'm not well verse on cars. Hope you can give me more insights. Thanks again...

Bro I need to comment on this coz I am one of those selling OEM projectors/ballasts/etc and I specialize in auto lighting upgrades for a couple of years now.

fairly priced parts?? price of any product will largely depend on supply and demand. If you compare the market of TRS vs. our local market, malayo masyado. It's like comparing night and day. TRS imports 200-500 pairs of projectors per shipment. I do less than 10 pairs every order. This is one thing. Also the retrofitting industry in the U.S mature already so nababa na nila talaga yung process. Since I started, my oem setup is already 20% cheaper compared to the first prices Ioffered 2 years ago. I continue improving on the process to make it more efficient para bumaba yung prices.

I am about to launch 3 new projectors na hindi pa ginagamit sa U.S. Well konting konti pa lang but these projectors willcompletely overhaul my stage1 and stage2 setups. This will lower my stage1 price and I will offer a better projector for stage2. I am super excited with the output of this stage2 projector coz TLZKWR performance pero cheaper prices. Ganda ng output.

Meron din tendency dito, of course not all, for people to want quality jobs but want to pay Banawe installer prices. People na nagpakabit sa akin know how I do my job and I know the value of my work. Since 1992, I've been runninga business while practicing my profession as an electronics engineer. I am also a car enthusiasts and lahat naman tayowant good prices to go with quality work. For hidretrofit.net, yan naman ang balance na we will continue to strive for.

yeah. i totally understand you garyq... nagagandahan kasi ako sa website ng TRS plus sa products nila...para kasing one stop shop pag gusto mo mag retrofit.. kaya i wish na mature na ang market ng pilipinas so more people will buy projectors and therefor more shipment and decrease in price..

by the way garyq, can fxr handle 70 watt hid's?

[pilotnord]

garyq, how much does it costs to retrofit my mitsubishi ASX GLS LO & HI beam only? for stage 1 & 2 quotations? Ilang araw siya
matapos at paano yung payment, half for advance payment at other half pag matapos na? Tapos ako na magkabit sa retrofit light
with instructions on it? thanks

[garyq]

pilotnord: bro believe me it would be a better experience if for you if I offer the complete package. With my new prices, you might be surprised that the difference of the complete package is small vs. if you import it yourself + labor, etc. Will PM you.

[kicks4us24]

yung Telescopic may Diffuser hindi siya nakakasilaw sa kasalubong kasi ang buga nito pababa unlike yung ibang hid's walang diffuser sabog ang buga

My telescopic has no diffuser.

learned from it. i have the rav4 gen2 with one of the largest headlamp. ni remove ko yun headlight diffuser because that were the days i was dumb and didnt know makakasilaw pala yun kinalas ko yun "GLARE SHIELD". kasi gusto ko lumakas yun buga.

the PNP HID i have is a 55w ballast and 55w bulb at 6000k setup and no builtin diffuser. its not a 35w

ALAS! dami akong nasilaw na kasalubong at murahin ka pa. wala pa naman tint kotse ko kaya alam na.

now naka projectors na ako. mas pogi kesa sa pnp hid.

[paolo37]

Sir ask koh lang.. Bakit yung projector ng mazda 3 koh sabog at parang walang cut off? Ano po kaya ang problem dun? At malapit lang po ang nararating ng low beam nya.. Yin ang projector ang high beam naman is reflector na halogen,, alignment ang kaya ang solusyon sa projector low beam koh or papalitan na ng hid bulb yung low beam?

[indiej]

clear lens will give you a sharp cut-off. this is not the case on the 3s halogen projector. dun sa sabog na ilaw, check mo bro sa manual kung tama ang bombilya na nakalagay, kung maayos ang pagkakalagay, at kung anong brand. about the distance, you could check the height of the cutoff. if your windshield is tinted, that lessens what you can see.

Hi garyq.... i just got my dmax 09 and planning to have the lights upgraded. Could your new development be applied to the Dmax. Will be having a heavy dark windshield and will be using the vehicle to projects sites way out of town proper of provinces. Weather is also a factor since we don't stop work; rain, shine, no moon. thanks

[rap2_tan]

Sirs is it ok to have a 55w hid?
Di ba mangingitim headlight?
Im choosing between 4300k or 6000k
Dba bulag pag umuulan ang 6000k?
How about sa fogs? Medyo euro kasi ako kaya i dont think bagay ang 3000k na yellow.
Tnx!

[gygie]

sir, may nakita akong namuti na reflective lens ng headlight na naka HID. anong cause nito? puede pa kayang lumala ito? tnx

[vjem]

grabe binack read ko to. sobrang dami ko natutunan.

so ok lang mag pa HID ka basta iretrofit mo na may projector ung HID mo? Like Bi-Xenon HID projectors? tama po ba? Thanks!!

[surg]

mga sirs, backread this thread and i find it very informative. however, may tanong ako: is the healight assen]mbly for the LO beam on the montero sport 2009 projector type already? meaning pwede na lagyan ng HID without retrofit?

pwede naman but dont expect an HID projector output kasi halogen projectors yun. Hindi na lalapad yung output, magkaroon ka increase sa intensity sa gitna. Kung wala ka naman tint, it might be acceptable.

sir, what about yun bato ng ilaw sa pnp? mas malayo ba compared sa stock halogen?

[oliver1013]

Napundi yung isang headlight ko,2008 lancer ex MX na oem HID....sabi sakin buo na raw papalitan yung headlight assembly kasi komplikado daw dahil may AFS....dafuq

[confused shoes]

^That should be a standard D2S pero hindi naman sigurong buo na assembly ang papalitan.

Marami dyang mabibili na D2S bulb. Ikaw na lang magpalit.
