If no, can you upgrade to these after buying a cheapo ebay kit?

Thanks

I have used my FM and XM with no problems. I have heard though one customer on here that listens to AM get some interference. But I don't ever go on AM so I wouldn't know. I can test it tomorrow and see if I get any static etc.

I am not sure... I guess it would depend on the bulb size and if I carry that bulb size.

Will these ship when the group buy ends or on the date of purchase?

All the orders will be placed at the end of the Group Buy. The orders will be shipped to me usually taking about 3-4 days. Then I box them up and ship them out the day I get them.

Between the 4300k & 6000k, is either noticeably brighter than the other or is it simply a matter of color preference?

The 4300K is a slight bit brighter but nothing really noticable to the naked eye. So I guess its more preference between those two.

Awesome! I think I'm sold. One more question: Although they're slightly yellow, the 4300s are still whiter than stock taco headlights, right?

thanks. last question:
To switch from 35w to 55w can you simply swap HID bulbs or does it require a totally different ballast?

Different bulbs and ballast.

01tacoprerunner · 11-12-2009, 05:39 PM

Yes, they'll work on a 1st gen, you'll need to get an H4 bi-xenon kit. I don't recommend getting anything higher than 6000K or you'll lose a lot of visible light on the road. The bluer the lights are the less light will be thrown on the road causing less visibility for you. I'd get either 4300K or 6000K for the bulb temp.

slimcubby · 11-12-2009, 07:08 PM

Exactly what humanoid said. Either 4300K or 6000K would be the way to go. They are very reliable and in the event that you possibly get a bad bulb/ballast they are covered under a 12 month warranty and I will take care of you.

freesample · 11-13-2009, 02:40 AM

um.. i'm thinking i getting those projector type housings..but i already got h4 hids. i have to change bulbs dont i?

xodeuce · 11-13-2009, 07:00 AM

If I wanted to change my H4 Bi-xenon order from 6k to 4300 could I do that at this point? Not sure if I want to or not. I want it to be good and white, but not ricey looking.

Yea you would need whatever size bulb the projector housing fits.

Yea that's not a problem just PM me if you end up choosing to change the color so I can update my order list.
