Default HID installed

Got the HID conversion done. One of the easiest installs I've done,
converted the H11 low beam in the Dual Bulb headlamp. Went with
the 6000K to get just a hint of blue, turned out a little bluer than
expected. Don't know what it looks like from a distance coming towards
it. It is bright, but don't know how it throws light yet. I'll post a review
when I get a chance to check it at night. $35 shipped. ddmtuning

Thought about doing that myself. Friends say they can't see me on my SG with the low beams on

http://www.ddmtuning.com/index.php?p...parent=61&pg=1, they make HID kits for most any bulb type and have arguably some of the best prices on the interwebs. Some of the guys on www.thenewx.org run them which is where I first heard of them.

I ordered 55w for my headlight and 35w for my spots at the beginning of the week, I am looking forward to the installation. I am just surprised at how long it takes them to get orders out the door. I read their disclaimer that orders ship in 7-10 days from the date of purchase, but I was amazed they did not offer some kind of expedite process, for a fee of course. I am sure with the price they start with everyone would pay the expedite fee too.

I went with the 5000K color so that the 55w and 35w could match-up as close as possible. Just one of the many things to do when I pull off the fairing. Along with the HID bulbs I ordered the E-code headlamp form Susquehanna. Trying to get the most light in the right place. Kind of a see and be seen thing.

I have a feeling that I will not have all my parts for removing the fairing this weekend, but next weekend should be busy.

I look forward to hearing about what you see at night with the new HID bulbs.
