You hear us recommending certain lighting systems for European vehicles, Dodge, Ford, Chrysler, and Jeep; and telling most others to choose whichever kit they prefer. More specifically, if you drive one of the aforementioned vehicles, we recommend a Canbus HID kit (if choosing HID's), or Decoders with your LED kit (if choosing LED's). But why? Well when an HID or LED kit is advertised as "CANBUS", it means the ballast input wires have modules to provide extra resistance to the vehicle's circuit. Since HID and LED bulbs consume far less actual power than the halogen bulbs they replace; problems can...

Since we offer a few LED kits, a lot of people are left confused on which one they should choose for their vehicle, or which is best, or which is brighter etc. There are certainly some attributes to an HID kit that may make them more favorable for you as a consumer. But, since you're here, we're going to assume that you have already made the decision to go with LED's. All of our LED's come in a 6000k white light, except for one of them which is also available in blue and yellow. If you want to see some...

A very common question we get is how come our vehicle bulb guide does not have "x" vehicle in it? Do you have a kit for it? Often times these vehicles end up being those with "Sealed-Beam Headlights" usually in a 7x6 size (also known as h6054). These headlights actually have a pre-installed bulb in there. It is sealed, essentially a part of the headlight. Some older vehicles come like this, so when a bulb goes out you simply purchase a new set of headlights with these pre-installed bulbs and you're good to go again. What about those who want...

High-intensity discharge lamps (HID lamps) are a type of electrical gas-discharge lamp which produces light by means of an electric arc between tungsten electrodes housed inside a translucent or transparent fused quartz or fused alumina arc tube. This tube is filled with both gas and metal salts. The gas facilitates the arc's initial strike. Once the arc is started, it heats and evaporates the metal salts forming plasma, which greatly increases the intensity of light produced by the arc and reduces its power consumption. High-intensity discharge lamps are a type of arc lamp. Brand new high-intensity discharge lamps make more...

There are 4 parts to an HID kit. 2 bulbs and 2 ballasts (2 bulbs for an LED kit). In the case of a malfunction, it is typically 1 out of 4 parts. Very, very rarely have we seen 2 out of 4 parts defective. Let alone right out of the box. It is rare enough for 1 out of 4 of these parts to be defective right out of the box. So as you can see the common saying of "My HID is bad or doesn't work" doesn't have merit. As if you happened to have one of these...
