I forget my old sign in name and password (dr powerstroke or something). Sigh! Anyway. I told someone I would post after I installed my hid kit. I went with the 5000k 50w and am very happy! I got them from http://www.reedsoffroad.com/hidlights.html depending on what you want. Prices start at $79 w/lifetime warranty! It was plug&play. Easy install. Took me about 20min a side. But, that's because I couldn't decide where to put the ballasts. Any questions regarding this kit or the 6000k 35w I put on wife's Dodge Neon. Ask away. Anything else, I might not be able to help. Only the kits I put in please.
I moved the coupon code to my original post code: forumcode15x ($15 off)
Coupon code no longer needed. They offer free shipping
Footnote: Before I get someone asking which is brighter...the 5000k 50w is

We did the hi/lo so it has a replay with kit. The truck I just did lo beam. So, no replay.
I have the 50w 5000k. At first. Yes. But, I adjusted the head light and not anymore. Wife has the 35w 6000k and she has never got flashed.
They work very well. I am the type "A" person who most business hate I want it right or forget it. These lights are great. I can see everything fine. 100% coverage.
The lm "brightness" is 4x that of a stock head light on 35w and 5x on a 50w.
Does that help?

Sure did, thanks for the reply. I misread it and though the wife had the bixenons...I wonder how those work?
You read right. Wife does have those. Bi-Xenon is hi/lo beam. Works fine. Hi's are not brighter, just changes pitch. I just have the single beam. After, I did her's I didn't think it was worth the extra money since it's not brighter. So, I went with the single beam and saved the money.
I installed bixenons in my truck and just installed HID projectors(H1) in my dads SD. Does anybody elses truck stumble or stall when they turn on theyre headlights, especially after just starting the truck?

Just a question, do you know if they also sell per piece HID kit (as in only 1 piece and not a pair), because my passenger side headlight got busted when a stupid driver hit my truck. Thanks.
I wanted a High Intensity Discharge kit which is a very cool light and better visibility especially during night driving. I opted to go with the single beam HID kit too and love it, they are cheaper on ebay but I wanted a warranty so I got it here. sealed beam conversion kits , or you can try one of the vendors.
