    I just got back from a 1400 mile road trip and the lights were amazing! More astounding is that I did not get a single "false" bright flash which I got all the time with the Osram Supers. (people brighting when your brights are not on)

                    fo sheezy, and an inferior kit to mine. The MrJung one. Still works the same but not built to the same quality. Being said they still work fine after a wreck that destroyed my old smoked Euros and the high beam bulbs.

                          Prolumen 5000k, I modified the plastic caps so that the wires could run through it, and the kit came with these sweet wire grommets that worked perfect with the plastic cap.

                          I want 6000k or hotter, anyone wanna trade?

                            What would all would I need to convert my 90 cabrio with sealed beams to ellips with hid, also what gives a better light pattern with hids, us or euro ellips? Which heat is the brightest, I just want bright, not blue.

                            about how much $$$

                              Didn't I tell you to get 6000? :)

                              Don't get anything higher than that though

                                You need a set of ellips and connectors and simple wiring skills. I just attached male spade connectors to the ellip wiring and plugged them in to the car's stock plugs. Then of course you'll need to install the HID's in the low beams, very easy job really. All in all you're looking at $100-$200 for ellips depending on what you buy and $200-$400 for an HID kit
