I think you've been swindled, no-one makes 10000k HID bulbs.

[Guest badinfluencemi16]

what are you talking about.. HIDs run from 6,000k (yellow color), 8,000k (white color), 10,000k (blue color), & 12,000k (purple color).

Nope, it's a marketing gimmick, nobody makes a bulb above a true 8000k for automotive use, most not above 6000k, something like 4500k is the brightest btw. 12000k would be nearly ultraviolet, and completely useless.

well, i dont know, all i know is that i have the blue hids, its the degree above the white, and the degree below the purple.

 

BTW my angel eyes just came in today, so i cant wait to put them on.

cool, keep us updated, i'm eager to see what angel lights look like coupled with HID's.

[KRISKARRERA 2 1 Cars]

They do look very bright.

 

By the way, what's that black rubber thing on your inlet manifold? Looks a bit like a gearbox-side engine mount with a cable coming out of it. Something to do with cruise control?

[Guest badinfluencemi16]

yea, its the cruise control pump. for example if u go 70 mph and you want to stay at that speed, u click the cruise control button and that rubber piece creates a vacume and stays in that position until you push on the gas or brake.

 

also stay tuned for my light swap. im going to put on the angel eyes hopefully on saturday. i have to change the bulbs from the place i bought the HIDS from because on the new angel eye, the bulbs are now H1 instead of the original 9004. im also thinking of getting yellow hids or yellow bulbs to put on the high beems. it should look really nice.

[Guest borgo]

To me it looks like around 8000k.

yea to me too, i guess its the company that i get the HIDs from, because i have seen them bluer than mine. but mine are SUPPOSED to be blue..

Probably 6000k bulbs with painted glass.

no they are not those fake HIDs with the blue glass.. these are the real HID kit. it costed me $380.00 USD.

MY NEW ANGEL EYES

 

 

 

 

 

 

i still need to get a couple of bulbs for the angel eyes, these are all regular factory bulbs, very dull in color.. i need to get some hyper white bulbs

Yes, but to get colours above 6000k usually they have to paint the tips of the bulb.

[Guest badinfluencemi16]

no, i dont know about what they do in europe, but here in the states, the color is determined by the box that suppllies the power. the bulbs are the same, but the more powerful the box is, the more colorful it gets. for example, the 6,000 box supplies a strong white color, the 10,000 supplies a blues color, and the 12,000 supplies a purple color.. but the bulbs are all the same

no disrespect but the fit looks a bit dodgy did they go on alright and can you get the plastic trims back on under the lights or have you got to modify them ,also looks a bit out against the wings could be just the photos though

[cybernck 400 1 Cars]

where have you bought these from?

 

the ones on ebay are a bit different...

 

hmm... actually, this is the style that's on ebay now, but they used to be a different style.

[Guest badinfluencemi16]

yea i bought them on ebay, and yes they fit fine. they were only bolted on with two bolts because i had to take them off to wire up the headlight bulbs. but my motor is out of my car, and should be done in about 2 weeks. ill take some new pics when the car is finished. should look nice

[lemans120 0]

that would explain it then they are an improvement on the standard ones i must admit i've been toying with the idea of those on the lemans with the smoked lexus rear lights but i feel i need to put it back to standard and put the bumper and grill on the track car.

[Guest badinfluencemi16]

these are some pics of my car in da garage getting worked on

 

 

 

 

[Guest pugmi16vt]

LOVE THE LOOK!! in comparison to the dual original ones with seperate sides.... Also are these glass or plastic? I went on ebay US and ebay UK but can't find them for the 405 anyone have a place I can pick up a pair??

[cybernck 400 1 Cars]

i'm not sure if they're available for RHD (yet) but "405 angel" brings them up for me (on ebay.de though).

 

p.s. please enter your details into your profile, especially your location information.

[Guest pugmi16vt]

AHHH thats a killer hehe I sooooo hope they make RHD... who can I contact? who is the actual maker of these ligts? just would be nice to have a single piece instead of the two seperate ones that I have now.

[cybernck 400 1 Cars]

well in the US the steering wheel is on your left hand side (hence LHD) so why are you bothered about RHD?

[Guest pugmi16vt]

LMAO!!!! OMG no comment hehe I read that completely wrong..... yes LHD is what I was thinking...... sweet I am GTG.... so ebay.de it is hehe as I don't see any on ebay.com for me thanks again!!!!

 

bare with me lol but what are there many different models of the angel eyes? The ones on ebay.de look like the ones at the beginnin of this post yet the ones linked below are different looking.
