eBay Motors: BLUE 8500K HID XENON HEADLIGHTS DODGE NEON SRT 4 95-06 (item 150210144901 end time Jan-26-08 16:03:31 PST) this is what i bought BTW...

im sorry.... one its will actually produce less light then stock and 2 its rice... anyway those either A aren't hid or B are the lowest quality hid kit EVER.

either way im sorry you bought them.

your best best is either A. get sylvania silver stars or B.get a true hid retro fit from a vendor on these forums.

when it comes to lighting you get what you pay for.

light output with a set of 5000k HID's and casper shields in the stock housings aren't that bad. also, those new modern performance projector/halo combos seem to offer decent output, especially considering the price.

yeah but one problem he just bought the bulbs not any ballasts and stuff

I had those Euro Design bulbs in my car for a few days.

They were sitting in my garage unused so i figured i'd throw them in just to see if they were actually decent. They are pretty horribel, they have a verry minor blueish hint, the light output is terrible, much worse than stock. I put the stockers in a few days later and now have HIDs.

I'm glad i didn't pay for these bulbs, not worth it.

I spent about 20 minutes doing this yesterday. They were a bitch to get in and I was afraid I was going to bust the bulb.

Just keep turning them till it goes in a little, then shove it in there as hard as you can till their stuck good. I couldn't get the black parts on the back to lock them in but they're in there good.
