. Sadya yata nila iyun!

by the way, with regards to kogsundiam, my hid's came from him (kogs), both h4 telescopic and i think for fogs are h3 type. My head lights are ok with it's beam, kapag gabi wala namang nag sisignal ng high sa akin so pressume it's not glaring. (which i really see to it na hindi talaga kasi ako mismo, irritado sa ganun.)

Sample wall shots naman dyan. :D TIA.

Personally I wanted to do a HIDs upgrade but there has been a nagging worry in my mind.

HIDs are more expensive and if something fails, it's also more expensive & difficult to fix/replace. Example, often I have seen cars with one busted HID (headlight or fog light). Other times, it might be the ballast meaning both lights would be affected.

Standard halogen bulbs, consumes more electricity and provides lower brightness but is cheaper & easy to replace. You can buy a replacement bulb nearly anywhere (DIY store, auto supply, gas station, etc).

Until now, I am still using halogen bulbs but have upgraded to 100 watt bulbs for my headlights and foglights.

why don't you try : New from Osram - NightBreaker H4 delivers up to 90% more light on the road for optimum visibility and safety and a 10% whiter light for minimal glare and optimum comfort.

^^^ For bes results sa ulan, use color temp 4300K or slightly below. As you go higher than 4300K, the more na humuhina sa ulan.

Iyong gumagamit ng matataas na color temps sa headlight, gumagamit ng yellow colored light sa fog to compensate sa ulan.

*sir meledson, as promised.
ito po wall shot pics. (pasiyensiya po sa shots at cam phone lang gamit 2mp, and medyo may ilaw ang area. by the way, wall is around +-4meters from the car)
hid fogs 3000k

h4 telescopic high/low 4300k
hid low ( medyo may konting glare pero i think minimal kasi walang nag sisignal sa akin

)

hid high

^^^ iyong telecsopic ay mayroong ng projector di ba? Siguro may konting ilaw na tumatawa sa reflectors mula sa HID kay may naliligaw na ilaw.

Ganda ng buga ng fogs. HID rin iyan di ba?

unfortunately wala sir, matagal na rin akong naghahanap ng projetor head lights for sportivo sana kaya lang wala pa akong nakita na nagpakabit and mukhang may gumagawa ng projector kaya lang medyo pricey pa kasi, wala sa budget

noong ikinabit iyung hid sir walang binago sa allignment ng head light, sabi ni kogsundiam, kapag walang problema sa stock na allignment, it follows na walang gagalawin. Iyung iba daw kasing ginagawa niya na hid's, ang gusto ng nagpapakabit is itaas ang allignment kaya po siguro iyun iyung mga nakakasalubong natin na glaring talaga. Fogs lang po pinabago ko ng allignment kasi ang stock niya hindi lalayo ng 2meters ang buga

Thank's sir.
