kingleo Posted August 23, 2012 Report Posted August 23, 2012 I really need to get clear lenses for these ... or get these repaired / cleaned / something ... and ideas ??? Get lower temp bulbs. 6k or 8k should be the highest. Anything higher you lose ligh output. http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/77708-2002-millenia-system-re-build/page__view__findpost__p__1070977__hl__%2Bmazda+%2Bmillenia__fromsearch__1 http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110130-2000-acura-integra-gs-4-door/page__view__findpost__p__1536749__hl__%2Bmazda+%2Bmillenia__fromsearch__1

White Lightning Posted August 19, 2013 Author Report Posted August 19, 2013 Got the HIDs back in and was going to do more work to this, But the wife had other plans ... So we went for a night in Vicksburg, and while she was in the Casino ... Me and Mike from Hyper met up to mess with the lights ... Not bad for a throw together setup without lenses to block the glares ...

White Lightning Posted August 19, 2013 Author Report Posted August 19, 2013 And just incase you are wondering ... Yes, these projectors ARE for HID lights and they are set up to work on low and high beams !!! So I will have these AND my origional Green High Beams going at the same time, but there will be white HIDs in the projectors ... At this time, we have no white HIDs in stock ... So for now, we are using Pink HIDs that someone ordered and never picked up ... ... and actually looks better than I would have ever imagined !!! We have more work done to them with Fiberglass Resin ... I will post those pics as soon as possible !!!
