Default HIDo's & HIDon'ts - The HID Lighting Tutorial

I found this excellent tutorial while researching information on HID lights. From http://www.intellexual.net/hid.html#bulbs . Great information for those interested.

thank you, HID's dont tend to look OEM Material either they are too blue or purplish. I would def Keep the oem Xenon's as they are very effecient and have a neutral colour.

I agree, it's nice that they look good but even better is that they work and light up both sides of the road, great for night driving.
