HID headlights

[knicks1204]

ILD, yung tint ko madilim.. ok lang yung 4300K? maliwanag pa rin yung makikita ko? malabo kasi mata ko eh.. heheh.. i'm afraid to drive at night because of my headlights..

4300k? stock lang yun eh... 8000k gamitin mo... kaya lang ako ng 6500k kasi yun kulay masmaganda for me... white na white talaga...

Yup its stock but HID has twice the lumens of halogens hence greater visibility...

Ok din yung 6500K, pero according to what I read, 4300K (stock) is your best bet for better visibility sans the porma factor. 8000K and up is for astetics.

BTW you can read theveed's thread regarding HID.

best pa rin ang 4300k. OEM HIDs of bimmmers, mercs, etc use that kelvin rating.

8000K pogi nga but when it rains hard, your expensive HID kit is useless. mas may silbi pa ang stock H4 bulbs pag umulan haha

[knicks1204]

ok.. so either 4300K or 6500K na lang.. ok po ba ang visibility ng 6500K pag umuulan?

sorry ang daming questions.. i just wanna make sure na tama yung kukunin ko.. :D

nakakasilaw po ba yung 4300k? Ano po ba yung Grabe yung ilaw na nakakasilaw na talaga? nakakaasar kasi minsan eh, ayoko tumulad sa kanila.

...well ganun talaga kung sa conventional headlight housing mo gagamitin. para kang naka floodlight.

...check mo yung mga xenon equipped euro cars, or even the 3.0 camry. projector type ang housing.

HIDs are pretty much useless unless you have those projector-type headlamps... you will only blind incoming vehicles
