Just finished installing my HID lights into my monte i still have to do the fog lights but that will probably be tomorrow. I also added a chrome grill and when it gets a little darker I'll be back to post some pics of the finished work.

 

i had HID lights before i was in an accident and they were great, except when i first installed them i kept blowing fuses left and right. after about 4 fuses i did some research and i guess its common to upgrade the fuse size (i think its a 15 and i replaced it with a 30) the first time it blew, i was driving and my light just suddenly went out. i was scared cause what if the other went out?! totally screwed. you may not have to and i wouldnt replace with a larger until it blows...but just so you know whats going on if something like that happens.

 

i have no problem with my ebay hid for the last 2 years now. i never replaced to any larger fuse either. did you buy a separate wire harness for it and make sure the headlights don't flash when locking/unlocking doors?

 

no i never did that but i knew that it couldnt be good for the HID's. i dont have them anymore but am thinking about getting them again. i got them off ebay from a company that had crappy shipping time...took a month to get and many times on the phone calling just to hear excuses. after the accident i was turned off of the idea just because of that. might buy them through zzp for 99 bucks not bad. so you say a seperate wiring harness would work? how did you wire them to get your lights not to flash?

 

PICS!!! lol What K temp did you get? I personally wouldn't go any higher than 5000.

 

i had 8000k before. ill be getting my 6000k soon. next month. i have the 8000 in the fogs right now. when i had my headlight fiasco i put the hids down in the fogs, just never put them back.

 

my 6k ebay kit looks good, i upgraded the harness and have had zero problems since.. will never own another car without doing a hid upgrade. night and day difference
