Drgray Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Basically I'm thinking of buying some HID's but obviously I know they can get real hot so was wondering whether jspec headlights are suitable since they are a clear plastic type material rather than glass? If they will be fine then can anyone recommend a good ebay job? Or a set that is relatively cheap. I've noticed the prices have dropped some what since the last time I bought some many years ago. Think I will be purchasing some 4300k lights if it is a feasible option. Thanks in advance! Oh btw, its h4 right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drgray Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 Isn't 4300k the best to go for in terms of visible light? Either or I don't mind as long as they aren't too blue. The ones on my alfa pretty much light the sky up and it pisses people off constantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones on my alfa pretty much light the sky up and it pisses people off constantly. That's most likely because it doesn't have a projector lens, standard halogen headlights will reflect the live so it scatters everywhere. I have had a few setups and found 4300k or 5000k to be the best. Anything further and you get the blue ting of light in them. The 4300k will give you the most light out put. Also looks much cleaner and more OEM looking. Since having these fitted I have never had issues with the plod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drgray Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Does the supra require those hid cancellation kits or is it a simple straight in job? I sure I've seen some cars don't like hid kits and you get all sorts of error codes in the dash and cause some epileptic fits as you turn the lights on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Shane_ Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 just plug n play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure I've seen some cars don't like hid kits and you get all sorts of error codes in the dash and cause some epileptic fits as you turn the lights on I believe thats the CANBUS system with with german cars (BMW Mercedes-benz, VW Group) HID's can also be fitted but a CANBUS system must be integrated. As said above, supra is plug and play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
