homemechanic Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 I have been wanting to convert my lights to HID. I see the conversion kits go from $150 - 350. Any suggestions where to buy cheaper kits? Don't really want to spend too much $$$. Prefer less than $75. Don't know if eBay stuff can be trusted.

Lexucan Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 hsg ?where to check? hsg=headlight housings=reflector or projector I just ordered an HID kit from XenonDepot.com for $250 - regular price $499 I wouldn't trust anything on ebay. You never know what you're getting and what do you do if there is a problem? Probably kiss your $$$ good-bye... :cries: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homemechanic Posted January 22, 2008 Author Share Posted January 22, 2008 what hsg do you have in there? How do I know what kind of housing do I have? 99 ES300, the upgraded model. the light bulb sits in a somewhat capsule shape shell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mburnickas Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I do not trust XenonDepot either. There $250 is, well worth $250. Not a phillips kit by all means. If you need an H7 bulb 1000 to 1 you are installing HID bulbs in a halogen housing. Which will look and perdorm like #$%&&*! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
