    Retrofit > the process of installing HID projectors inside your halogen stock headlights
    Projector > the glass part that focuses the light coming from an HID bulb into an area on the road
    HID > High Intensity Device, produces 3X more light than traditional halogen lighting setup
    Main Parts of an HID system > Projector, HID Bulb, Ballast



    where to go? depends on your location. andyan si garyq..

    This is right. If you want to install HID in your headlight, you should have it retrofitted with a projector. Pag HID lang hindi focused yung light so hindi mo ma maximize ang benifit. Plus you will annoy drivers on the opposite side of the road because you will be blinding them.
