True dat ^. If you run HID's in non-HID housings you...

a) won't have "brighter" lights, and will create light "scatter" with no cutoff
b) won't see any better
c) will get flashed by annoyed oncoming drivers
d) are doing it wrong

IMO, just go spend your money on some really nice PIAA super white H4 series halogen bulbs. They will give you brighter lights without the cons of running an HID setup the wrong way.

But then you can't say you have HID's? Do they make them with LED strips?

I want HID's though haha. Like ryan said its the fact of owning the color'd bulbs that makes it sweet. I hate being a headlight that just blends in with all the other 500 cars on the road. When i see HID's I think hmmm Prius or a really cool car INC.

made a custom shift tower, installed carpet, ran shift cables, adjusted them, re-installed seats, cleaned up radiator, put a new flex joint in the downpipe (sucked before), re-installed brake lines, still need to bleed them.

Tomorrow hopefully i can get the new gas tank from bartek, install it, bleed brakes, buy/install axles, put the battery back in and drive this BITCH!~
