are they worth it or worthless? its seems like a pretty cheap plug and play option. i dont care about the look of HIDs, i just like bright lights cause i can’t see at night with those horrible orange street lights in this city. I coulda just bought silverstars but i’d have as much into to them as the HID kits on ebay.

If there is not a focused projector from the factory you are going to blind everyone and possibly get pulled over depending on your headlight.

To answer your question, yes they are bright.

I used the silverstars in my accord and was VERY happy with them.

Ideally anything with Phillips/Osram bulbs and burners would be fine. Ther are loads of other-named kits out there in the sub $250 range that are very good. Just don’t be taken in my the different color temperatures. 4-5K is MORE than enough. There is a point of diminishing returns with color temp…as the color moves toward the blue/purple range (high K rating) actual observable light output drops.

The only problem I had with the kit that I previously bought was it had a bad ballast. Otherwise they were pretty nice for the price. I paid 130.00 from some place on ebay.
