Are our headlights HID? The answer is ...
The answer is YES!
I for one always thought otherwise that our headlights are just projector halogen.
Coz after a while, we all know that the headlights always turn from
white to yellow
Or the PI 8s at least.
Until I went to my auto accessory shop to change my ballasts for my foglight
and they POiSONED me.
They said "change your headlight colour lah, it will be as white as your HID foglight."
I told them "No way no thanks" but the boss say "I put on and let u see lah...
no obligation" and after that I told him
"Don't trouble your workers lah, just leave them on"
A further confirmation is when they took out the stock headlights
and they were HID bulbs.
So here we see the difference. On the left is my new bulb and
on the right is the stock bulb.
My new HID bulbs is white but still with a slight tinge of yellow
but much closer to my foglight.
2nd picture is after the colour of the new bulb after driving for 30 minutes.
For those wondering how much it cost me? S$200.00 a pair.
you can get any good auto accessory shop to do it for you.
