Whats the best HID conversion kit to get? I want the one that is most blue in color and that is reliable.

Bellof's Arc White. The best HID in the industry, it's a product from Japan. You'll have to find a place that'll carry them here in US.

Umm AIM: AndoOKC to get pricing. NOt that bad though

mine ran me about $800 but that's because I got E-Code projectors which were about $500.

What kind of HID kit (ballast/bulbs/etc...) did he use?

soccer3303 · 03-20-2002, 07:53 PM

i bought mine seperately from Ebay. I have Hella Ballasts and Philips D2S bulbs from a 3 series beemer. But Vick now has an official supplier, so he can get good prices from him.

Just FYI, if any of you dudes are looking for OE xenon projectors like Ando OKC has done, I have a pair from a 2001 7 series BMW. They've got bulbs, ballasts and everything works properly.

5 bills takes em. I think ando does the custom installs too.. not sure what he will charge you, but he's done a few and I'm sure he could do 7 series also.

WARNING: 7 series projectors WILL NOT FIT in the prelude housing

Itchy · 03-29-2002, 07:52 PM

How would you know? It's the same bosch projector that is used in the Audi TT and 3 series E46. The same projector Ando has in HIS Lude.

Good call man! Better luck next time!

soccer3303 · 03-29-2002, 08:25 PM

lol.. well.. i dont know man.. it seems a little sketchy. I mean, my dad has a 7 series and it looks larger than the 3 series. And i know that Audi's projectors get larger as you move up the line from A4 --> A8. So, as far as measurements go, i dont have any proof but then again, neither do you.

AndoOKC · 03-29-2002, 09:34 PM

well i know Itchy personally and he's just as knowledgeable as I am but ive talked to him and he wont pull the proejctors out to show us they are the same, so dont take his word for it b/c i wouldnt want anyone buying these b/c if they arent then you are stuck with them. I am 90% sure they are the same b/c he took pics of the back and the specs look the same but its imperative that he pulls them out if he wants to make a statement that they are the same.

Cruxader · 03-30-2002, 12:14 AM

hey soccer3303...why does your HID pic look like your left HID is a lot brighter than your right one? and your right foglight is out too...is that a comparo b/w superwhites and HID?

soccer3303 · 03-30-2002, 09:14 AM

well, i need to take new pics. My camera got stolen so it might be a while. And yea, my fog isnt really burnt out, the wires are loose and im lazy
