I split this off from your other thread. Thought is would make a good topic Yes I have high beams. Well kind of. When I turn the hiB on only three of the lights go on. Thanks for the correction Sam. |

When you used these Xeon lamps...did your electric system notice a big drain? Do you need to up the size of the alternator? |

Xenons or HID's donot draw more they actually draw less power and last 30% longer than regular bulbs... So you will not need a new battery/altenator... |

hids draw only 35 w...regular bulbs draw 55w...its only when you turn them on the blast makes 25000volts to ignite the gas...after that....its all cool... |

well to add hids to your camaro or bird, you have to get a set of conversion lenses that convert your selaed beam into h4 bulb housings, then you have to get a h4 bulb hid kit and wire it up.... |

well on most newer cars its plug an play...for us...since you first have to do an h4 conversion and then add hids, all you have to do is splice 2 wires...ground and power into the plug that used to go in the back of the sealed beam..pretty simple...u can check out my audi ones on sunday... |
