Can you see anything with those lights? You must have lost 60% of your light output. They look cool, but are they going to be bright enough?

They look really cool

I'm thinking of installing a HID set myself. Have you experienced any problems so far?

how does the new HID bulbs fit into the original halogen bulbs' socket? is it a perfect seal in the back, just like OEM?

12 volt input

85 volt output with 20,000 volt ignitor coil.

all hids run at the same voltage, however the ignitor coil can vary a few 1000 volts depending on brand.
