i have a question about the HIDs i dont no very much about them.. i was lookin to upgrade to 12 k (purplish) but do u have to just get the bulb or buy the ballast too.. i keep hearing diff things from diff people .. and if u no any good sites to get them from that are the cheapest link me plz? what kelvin is the stock ap2 ones?

 

Your "upgrade" is a downgrade. The stock bulbs are ~6,400-6,500K which is natural daylight.

yea .. but still.. i like it... not a huge difference tho.. so will i need the ballast or just the bulbs?

 

all stock bulbs are 4300K, which output the most lumens, the higher you go the less useful light you get

 

just the bulbs

 

ummm, 12000K is a huge difference from 4300K. you are hardly going to see anything at all with that deep purple.



^^^exactly





i suppose to answer your question, you only need to get the bulb. go to ebay and search "12000K D2S HID bulbs". you'll find all your cool purple lights there. i highly suggest you do not do this though.

 

 

you can upgrade your bulbs, easy, no change in ballist, they make upgrade hid bulbs, i think the size is ds2, correct me if im wrong, but it just plugs in the factory plug, factory is 4300k but upgrading the bulb might cause a ballist failture or overheat the factory unit, and the 12ks, just look like cheap color bulbs, and takes the hid out of it.. it looks like a hid kit , instead of the nice factory real hids, you u know wat i mean..

 

sell me your oem bulbs for 20 bucks and enjoy the 12k's

 

iigh well i guess i wont "downgrade" then thanks for the adviice didnt no all that
