ok im not sure if im allowed to post this in here but anyways i was woundering if anyone has put hid kit in their projector headlights because i herd u shouldnt do it?? thanks
 
Should search on this topic, there is a tonn of info, just type in HID & you will get all the info you need. If you looked a couple lines down you would see there is already a post on this very subject.

Short answer: Putting the HID bulb kits in the ebay halogen projector headlights is a bad idea, just like installing HID bulbs in a reg halogen headlight. The reflector or projector in these lights weren't designed to be used with HID. HID has more light output & a proper HID projector has a very sharp cutoff point where the light stays focused below, a housing designed for a halogen bulb does no have this & you end up giving off a large amount of glare & blinding oncoming drivers. Proper way is to get a projector headlight & replace the halogen progector with a proper OEM HID projector out of an audi, etc. You will see several write ups if you do a search on HID.
 
you could do it but it won't be a good idea. Have you seen any car with stock headlight w/hid kit in them? The output is so bad and light output is everyone so it will bother other ppls on the road and another reason for cop to pull you over. The best way to do it is get yourself tsx/s2000 HID projectors and retro fit into your projectors for best light output.
