Five Hours + Blood/Sweat/Tears = Long Friday Night

Hmm, I may have to get a few HID kits for the fogs and H4s.

not very well, they mostly blind people due to nasty hot-spots.

That is not true. Why does everyone on the net think this?

If you have true e-code headlamps they are shielded with a reflector inside the housing PLUS the glass is fluted to help aim the light. Then on top of that good H4 HID kits are shielded on the bulb as well... There will be hotspots but they end up being out in front of the car. It is not like putting an H1 bulb into a fog flight and mounting it on your bumper.




7" H4 HIDs in 88 Jetta w/ Rally Front End - Look at all the "stray" light blinding everyone!!!

How do the hids work in the non-ellipsoid lights?

Does the lows have city lights? If they do, could you get a picture with them on in the dark?

They do but not wired in.

how much does the lights and grills run?

Depending on condition and location but normally in the 300 range.

Local friend had these so I saved on shipping so 225 + 55W HIDs + Lamin-x + Wiring Kit I built

Are you bringing the E28 to the Dragon? Can't wait to see it!

Oh Yes!

It should be setup by then for a very sweet night time run through the dragon :)

Have a very "2002ish" mod coming ;)

I got a local hook up with Hot Spots Tinting. Their mobile Tinter Bridgette does all my cars. I won't let anyone else do it.

[e30pwr]

I approve. Where are you getting your tint done? I am going to need mine when I put new audio stuff in. The high schoolers at my school are notorious for stealing things.
