Hi do the h7 Hid's on a 225 need to be canbus ones or not? Cant really find the info saying which ones it needs
I didn't buy can bus ones and they are fine. http://www.xenonsonline.com/xenon-h...ts/h7-standard-xenon-hid-conversion-kits.html
Not another pnp xenon kit... Just hate those they glare people and much likelly produce less light than halogens in the same reflector. It is only your eyes that think its better ilimunated becouse of bluish tint.... (And aiming lights down just doesnt hellp redouce the glare)
Hid quality in halogen reflectors just make me lought... How do and to what do you compare the quality?? Have you seen an actual oem xenon ballast, bulb, full intensity warm up time... These are the cheapest type of dc ballast and bulbs... (Oem are AC ballast and that extendt the bulb life for up to 4 times)
HID in reflectors do look shit. However, don't jump to conclusions. I have HIDs in projectors. So they look just like oem xenons.
I'm in the hid world and seen all that is out there, even the projectors are diferent a lot for halogen vs xenon. For chinese ones Cnlight is the top performer. And best of the non eom bulbs.
Regarding the glare: Halogen reflectora + hid bulb = a loot of glare Halogen projector + hid bulb = little glare (you can notice it as the low beam shines on the road side signs. Hid reflectors + hid bulb ( only d1r, d2r, d3r, d4r bulb type ) = no glare Hid projectirs + hid bulb ( only d1s, d2s, d3s, d4s bulb type ) = no glare
True when you once try a god thing anything else just don't cut it. And as most of us spend on single tire more than would be to by oem denso ballast (the best) plus a pair of hella e55 projectors and a pair of oem bulbs and have the light that lights up the road etc... Improvment of halogen to hid projector is ovsome. I just have to find a picture of it in my bike. And ill post it up here
this is in my bike: the halogen reflector is covered up, and here is low beam mode and high beam. i have a hid bulb in my halogen projector so look at the difrense in the output intesity (where they dont overlap (on the right side of the picture) and spread
so are these lights sugested in this post worth buying or can someone sugest a better option? i think my lights have projectors in them?
Sorry for late response. Hid projector and oem bulb/ballast is always much more better than a pnp hid.
OK , I have followed this thread with interest. I need some one to say you need this ( with a link ) and them ( with another link ) so I can rush out and buy them !
yeah i agree, you experienced guys need to make my lights as white and bright as possible, and least chavvy as possible. suggestions please
White and bright isnt true usually. The only bulb that are wight and god are Osram CBI (cool blue intense) at 5000K. But with them you wont see a thing in rain. White is very bad for foggy and wet wheather. I think that osram NBU (night braker unlimited) and are at 4350K are the best xenon bulbs out there. And these two are rated at 3200lumens. Second white bulbs are philips ultinons at 6000K and only 2400lumens which is just slightly more than halogen bubls. There are philios XV at 4800K which are in market to compete with osram cbi but they are not even close in output.
As you seem to know a bit about lights etc and I know jack. This is my 1st car with xenons and know nothing about them but to me it seems like they r both out of line. As in passenger one points way to much to the left. And drivers one way to much down. And not very bright. Anyone got any advice on this.
Are you talking abaut ph1 oem xenon or? I need specifics so i can advice you further. Also a wall shot at dark would help me be more precise
