I remember a thread a while back where some people were saying the 6K HID’s were ricerish.

Well here is what they look like on my car. They are VERY bright, exp compared to stock and I don’t see anything rice about them.

I know Pauly was interested in this:

Oh and I LOVE the way the new exhaust sounds : )

Do it. I paid $110 for the kit. Included the bulbs, slim ballasts, resistor and all the wiring. Took me 20 minutes to complete.

How much smaller are the “slim” ballasts? I have the reg ones, I would say they are 4"x4"x3/4" or so.
